Our pouring cup makes placement easier. It allows you to pour
liquids, sand, flour, etc. into the container of your choice. Simply
activate your first external capability switch (not included) and the
cup will pour into your cup, bowl, pail, sandbox, etc. Activating the
second external capability switch (not included) returns the cup to
the upright position. Enables users of all ages to actively partake in
cooking exercises or engage in dramatic play. Perfect for teaching
the laws of conservation. Attaches easily to flat surfaces, bars or
table legs. Removable measuring cup facilitates easy cleaning.
Accepts 1/8" plugs.

Operation:Operation:
Operation:
1. The Pouring Cup on Flex Mount requires 4 AA batteries. The
battery compartment is located in the plastic housing unit
near the clamp. Alkaline batteries are recommended
because they last longer. Do not use rechargeable batteries
because they supply lower voltage and the unit may not
perform as well. When installing new batteries, always be
careful to observe proper battery polarity.
2. Connect the unit to a double switch, such as the rocking plate
switch (#1399), or to any two external capability switches
(not included), via the jacks located on the back of the plastic
housing unit, behind the battery compartment. The Pouring
Cup on Flex Mount, #24, is equipped with 1/8-inch jacks, for
use with capability switches with 1/8-inch plugs. If you use
1/4- to 1/8-inch adapters purchased elsewhere, they must
be mono adapters, not stereo. Make sure that you have tight
connections between the switches and the jacks. There
should be NO APS. On the housing unit opposite the battery
case is a speed adjustment knob, turning it clockwise
increases the speed at which the cup turns and counter clock
wises decreases it.
3. The measuring cup is attached to its mounting plate via dual
lock Velcro and can be removed from the unit for cleaning
purposes (See Important Notes

Clamping Options: Our mounting clamp is designed for
mounting to tubular (wheelchair, bedrail, walker, etc.) or flat

use the included wedge insert shoe stored in front of the locking

2. Using the mounting clamp, attach the Pouring Cup to a Wheel
Chair, Table or Desk. Tighten the clamp enough to hold the
Pouring Cup securely, but do not over-Tighten the clamp.
3. For some mounting applications the clamp will need to be
mounted horizontally, we have included a ooseneck clamp
mount adapter for this use. To use the adapter you first must
remove the ooseneck from the clamp, do this by loosening the
set knob on the back of the clamp. This is the same knob that
holds the clamp wedge (shown in Fig.1). Next depress the spring
loaded pin on the side of the clamp and pull the ooseneck from
the clamp (see Fig.3). Attach the adapter to the ooseneck and
secure with the included mounting screws as shown in (Fig. 4 &
5).
