Facilitates precision placement of small parts. The hand that holds the wand is used to
position and/or rotate the part being placed while the other hand makes or breaks the
vacuum.
SELECTI N F VACUUM CUPS WITH PR BES
The vacuum cups are a soft rubber material that allow handling a wide variety of small
parts.
SELECTI N F MINIATURE VACUUM TIPS
These tips are designed to handle tiny parts as small as 0.01” (0.25mm).

1. Connect the small
diameter vacuum hose
to the vacuum fitting on
the front of the SMD-
VAC. Make sure the
hose is pushed all of
the way on. Connect
the other end of the
vacuum hose to the
rear of the vacuum
handle, again make
sure the hoses pushed
all the way on.
2. Select a probe with a
vacuum cup that is
slightly smaller in
diameter to the outline
of the parts that you
want to pick and place.
Securely install it on
the tapered end of the
vacuum handle.
Selecting a vacuum
cup that is too large or
too small will result in
improper operation.
3. Connect the 3 wire
SMD-VAC power cord
to input power. Turn the
N/ FF switch to the
on position.
4. To pick and place a
part:
a. Gently place the
vacuum cup on top of
the part that you wish
to pick up. The part
should now be firmly
grasped by the vacuum
cup.
b. Now move the part to where you want it.
c. To release the part simply depress the button with your finger, the part should now be
released.
5. Remember to turn the unit off when you are finished.
Operation of the SMD-VAC™-HF Using the optional Interrupter P/N V3025
PRECISION PARTS PLACEMENT
1. Connect the small diameter vacuum hose to the vacuum fitting on the front of the
SMD-VAC. Make sure the hose is pushed all the way on. Connect the other end of
the vacuum hose to one side of the vacuum interrupter block. Connect another length
of vacuum hose in between the other side of the vacuum interrupter block and the
rear of the vacuum handle that has N control hole (V3021-RF or optional V3121-
RF), again make sure the hose is pushed all the way on.
2. Select a probe with a vacuum cup that is slightly smaller in diameter to the outline of
the parts that you want to pick and place. Securely install it on the tapered end of the
vacuum handle. Selecting a vacuum cup that is too large or too small will result in
improper operation.
3. Connect the 3 wire SMD-VAC power cord to input power. Turn the N/ FF switch to
the on position.
4. To pick and place a part:
a. Gently place the vacuum cup on top of the part that you wish to pick up. The part
should now be firmly grasped by the vacuum cup.
b. Now move the part to where you want it.
c. To release the part simply depress the button on the interrupter block with your finger,
the part should now be released.
