Assembly
The only assembly required is fitting the Yoke (#39) onto the Cup (#47).
1. Slide the Yoke (#39) onto the Cup (#47) so that the grooves on the Cup (#47) connect to
the tabs on the Yoke (#39).
2. Once connected, secure by turning the Cup Lever (#40) to the left, locking it.
Operation
Warning! Never allow the Spray Gun and Cup (#47) to lay on it’s side when the Cup (#47) is
full of paint. The paint wil clog the Air Supply Tube (#48).
1. Reverse the assembly process above to remove the Yoke (#39) from the Cup (#47).

3. Fill the Cup (#47) three quarters full with coating. DO NOT OVERFILL!!

Make sure you secure the Cup Lever (#40) to the left.
Compressor Attachment

compressor between 50 and 70 PSI (preferably 60 PSI).
Spray
Gun
For best service, you should incorporate an oiler, a regulator, and an inline air filter, as shown
above. All are available at Harbor Freight Tools.
6. Connect the air hose to the Air Inlet (#31).
Note: Use the lowest possible pressure setting on the inline regulator.
1. Spray from a distance of approximately eight inches while keeping the Spray Gun perpen-
dicular to the ground. Activate Gun by depressing the Trigger (#8).
2. Maintain your distance as you evenly move from side to side. Do not fan or arc the Spray
Gun or the paint will apply unevenly.
3. Keep the Fluid Control Screw (#36) turned all the way in when beginning to spray. Once
started, you may unscrew it slightly and slowly to atomize the spray.
4. The Adjusting Screw (#28) controls the amount of coating sprayed. Screw it all the way
in and the minimum amount of coating is released. The more you screw it out, the more
coating is dispensed. Never unscrew more than five threads during operation!.
