Product Features
- Super Strong Magnet: Provides secure attachment and high load capacity.
- Movable Hook: The hook can be rotated 360 degrees and moved freely up, down, left, and right for optimal positioning.
- Protective Sheet: The magnetic side is equipped with a protective sheet to prevent scratches or damage to mounting surfaces such as refrigerators or whiteboards.
- High Load Capacity: Estimated vertical load capacity of approximately 15.4 lbs (7 kg) and horizontal load capacity of approximately 11.0 lbs (5 kg).

Setup and Installation
- Choose a Suitable Surface: Identify a clean, flat, and ferromagnetic surface such as steel cabinets, refrigerators, whiteboards, or metal doors.
- Clean the Surface: Ensure the chosen surface is free from dust, grease, or moisture to maximize magnetic adhesion.
- Attach the Hook: Place the magnetic base of the hook firmly against the desired surface. The protective sheet should be in contact with the surface.
- Test Stability: Before hanging any items, gently pull on the hook to ensure it is securely attached and does not slide.
Operating Instructions
The Sonic MG-757-OR magnetic hook offers flexibility in use:
- Hook Rotation: The hook component can be rotated 360 degrees to orient it in any direction needed.
- Hook Movement: The hook can also be moved up, down, left, and right relative to its base, allowing for precise positioning of hung items.
- Load Capacity: Always adhere to the specified load capacities. For vertical applications, the maximum is approximately 15.4 lbs (7 kg). For horizontal applications (e.g., hanging from the underside of a shelf), the maximum is approximately 11.0 lbs (5 kg). Exceeding these limits may cause the hook to detach or slide.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the hook and magnetic surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish or the protective sheet.
- Protective Sheet: Periodically inspect the protective sheet on the magnetic base for any signs of wear or damage. A damaged sheet may reduce adhesion or scratch surfaces.
- Storage: When not in use, store the hook in a dry place away from strong magnetic fields that could affect other sensitive devices.
Troubleshooting
- Hook is not holding weight:
- Ensure the mounting surface is ferromagnetic (e.g., steel, iron).
- Verify the surface is clean and dry.
- Check that the weight of the item does not exceed the specified load capacity (7 kg vertical, 5 kg horizontal).
- Ensure the entire magnetic base is in full contact with the surface.
- Hook slides down:
- The load might be too heavy for the surface or the orientation.
- The surface might be too smooth or have a coating that reduces friction.
- Consider using it on a thicker steel surface for better grip.
