DESCRIPTION

All  KB-II  style  cups  are  pressure  regulated  
and have a 2.4 quart (77 oz.) capacity. They 
are designed to be attached to any manual 
spray  gun  with  air  and  material  hose.  The 
cup  may  be  carried  in  one  hand  using  the 
comfortable  hand  grip  or  left  on  the  floor 
while spraying.  The KB-II's wide diameter and 
low profile provides a low center of gravity 
which increases stability and resists tipping. 
Models KB-555 and KB-545-SS include a 0-30 
psi gauge. KB II cups are supplied with KK-
5051 disposable cup liners (5 each) to reduce  
clean up time and cleaning solvent.

Pressure  cups  provide  a  greater  degree  of 
control  over  atomization  air  and  material  
pressure  than  obtainable  through  use  of  
suction feed equipment. Pressure cups also 
enable user to apply heavy or more viscous 
materials in small amounts where a 2 quart 
capacity is sufficient for the job.

INSTALLATION

Risk  of  injury.  Cup  is  under  pres-
sure.  Disconnect  cup  assembly   
from air supply before installing or 
removing  lid  assembly  from  cup   
for  filling or cleaning.

1.  Connect fluid hose (A) to fluid inlet of 

gun and outlet of cup (1) as shown. See 
Figure 1.

2.  Connect atomization air hose (B) to air 

inlet of gun and outlet of cup (2) as shown. 
See Figure 1.

3.  Connect air supply hose (C) to inlet cou-

pling (3) on cup handle. See Figure 1.

NOTE

Order hoses separately.  

See "Accessories", page 4.

OPERATION

Risk of injury or equipment damage. 
Air pressure to the cup must never 
exceed 50 psi, (3.5 bar).

Mix and prepare the material to be sprayed 
according  to  manufacturer's  instructions.  
Strain material through a 60 to 90 mesh screen 
or equivalent before spraying. Place KK-5051 
disposable liner into cup. Refer to instructions 
provided with KK-5051.
