Cup Installation, Cleaning and Maintenance
Note: Your cup is made from
aluminum. Certain solvents
containing Methylene Chloride and
Trichloromethane are not chemically
compatible with aluminum.
Read, understand and follow all
safety statements as well as wear
appropriate, approved personal
protective equipment per the
applicable MSDS and material
container labels for cleaning solutions.
Set Up Instructions:
With material in your cup, tighten the lid
and pressure relief screw. Attach your
incoming high-pressure air to the
quick disconnect fitting on the regulator.
Attach one end of your fluid hose to the
fluid inlet fitting on the spray gun with
a

" open-end wrench. Use a
4
open-end wrench to apply counter force
to the fluid inlet fitting. Attach the other
end of your fluid hose to the cup with
a

Note: Spray solvent through the spray
gun and 2-Quart cup before using it for
the first time.
Note: Refer to your Spray Gun Owner's
Manual for component references and
additional set up instructions. Pressure in
the cup should not exceed 50 psi
(3.5 BAR).
Fluid Pressure Range:
Using fluid pressures over 20 psi may
create heavy center effects in the spray
patterns. Changing the fluid nozzle to the
next larger size, then reducing the fluid
pressure will reduce the heavy center
effects in the spray patterns.
Note: Relieve the pressure from the
2-Quart cup before servicing.
Cup Care and Cleaning
It is important to clean your cup after
every use.
Before removing the cup lid from
