Fill the Cup or Remote Pressure Pot
Spray Gun Cup
WARNING
The spray gun cup is pressurized by the gun’s air
supply. To reduce the risk of serious injury from
pressurized fluid or accidental spray from the gun,
always turn off the air supply to the gun before you
remove the spray gun cup.
Only fill the cup 3/4 full to help keep the air pressure
tube clean, then install the cover. The under-cup cover
has a latch (H) to secure it to the cup. The over-cup (J)
has threads that keep the lid in place when tightened in
place on the cup.

Accessory Remote Pressure Pot
WARNING
The accessory remote pressure pots remain pres-
surized until pressure is manually relieved. To
reduce the risk of serious injury from pressurized
fluid or accidental spray from the gun, always
relieve pressure in the pressure pot before you
loosen or remove the cover.
1. Relieve pressure from remote pressure pot as
follows (see Fig. 5):
a. Turn off air supply to pressure pot.
b. Turn pressure relief knob (133). Wait until
pressure is completely relieved before you
remove cover. Close knob.

2 quart
2. Remove pressure pot cover and fill. Secure cover.
NOTE: Lightly coat the cover threads with petroleum
jelly.
CAUTION
If the 2-quart remote pressure pot is accidentally
tipped over or held at too great of an angle, fluid may
leak into the air regulator and cause damage. Take
precautions to avoid this. If fluid does get into the
regulator, clean it immediately.
NOTE: Always spray with the least amount of pot
pressure required to provide the desired spray pattern
and rate of application, typically 10 psi. Spraying at
pot pressures higher than necessary wastes paint and
can result in an orange peel finish.
