Setup Instructions
- Prepare the Surface: Ensure the surface where the adapter will be applied (e.g., phone case, tablet back) is clean, dry, and free of dust, oils, or residues. Use an alcohol wipe for best results and allow it to dry completely. The surface must be smooth and flat for optimal adhesion.
- Position the Adapter: Carefully determine the desired placement of the adapter on your device. Once the 3M VHB adhesive is applied, it is extremely difficult to reposition without damaging the adhesive.
- Apply the Adapter: Peel off the protective backing from the 3M VHB adhesive on the back of the adapter. Align the adapter precisely with your chosen position and press firmly for at least 30 seconds. Apply consistent pressure across the entire surface of the adapter.
- Cure Time: For maximum bond strength, allow the adhesive to cure for 24-72 hours before subjecting it to heavy use, twisting, or magnetic forces. This allows the adhesive to fully bond to the surface.

Operating Instructions
Using the Twist Lock System
To attach your device to a compatible Rokform Twist Lock mount:
- Align the four tabs of the adapter's Twist Lock mechanism with the corresponding slots on the Rokform mount.
- Insert the adapter into the mount.
- Twist your device clockwise until you feel and hear a click, indicating a secure lock.
To detach your device, twist counter-clockwise until the lock disengages, then pull your device away from the mount.
Using the Magnetic Mounting System
The adapter features both a MagSafe compatible ring and lower magnets for versatile magnetic attachment:
- MagSafe Compatibility: The central MagMax ring allows for strong magnetic attachment to MagSafe compatible accessories, chargers, and mounts.
- Rokform Magnetic Mounts: The lower magnets provide additional holding power and compatibility with various Rokform magnetic mounts.
- Simply place your device with the adapter onto any compatible magnetic surface or mount. The strong magnets will hold it in place.

Maintenance
The Rokform Universal Adapter V2 requires minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:
- Cleaning: Wipe the adapter periodically with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the surface or adhesive.
- Adhesive Integrity: Once applied, avoid attempting to peel off or reposition the adapter, as this will compromise the 3M VHB adhesive bond.
- Magnetic Surfaces: Keep the magnetic surfaces of the adapter clean and free of metallic debris to ensure a strong and consistent magnetic connection.
Troubleshooting
- Adapter Not Sticking:
- Ensure the application surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before application.
- Verify the surface is smooth and flat. Textured or uneven surfaces will prevent proper adhesion.
- Allow the full 24-72 hour cure time for the adhesive to reach maximum strength.
- Avoid applying the adapter to silicone or rubberized cases, as 3M VHB adhesive may not bond effectively with these materials.
- Twist Lock Not Engaging/Disengaging:
- Check for any obstructions in the Twist Lock mechanism on both the adapter and the mount.
- Ensure proper alignment before twisting.
- Magnetic Hold is Weak:
- Ensure the magnetic surface of the mount is clean and free of debris.
- Confirm the mount itself is a Rokform magnetic mount or a MagSafe compatible accessory.
