SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. ALWAYS keep the unit perfectly clean. This will not only prolong its life, but will
also ensure you get the best results.
2. NEVER exceed an air pressure supply of 3bar (43.5psi) to the product.
3. NEVER attempt to adjust the safety valve
4. NEVER tamper with the product or modify in any way, as this could prove to
be dangerous and will invalidate the guarantee.
5. ONLY use the product for the purpose for which it is intended,
6. ALWAYS wear approved impact resistant SAFETY GOGGLES. (Eye glasses are
NOT safety glasses), and a FACE MASK
7. DO NOT remove any labels. Damaged labels should be replaced.
AIR SUPPLY
WARNING
Compressed air can be dangerous.
Ensure that you are thoroughly
familiar with all precautions relating
to the use of compressors and
compressed air supply.
Air pressure supply to the container should not be greater than 80psi. Higher pressure and
unclean air, will shorten the tools’ life because of faster wear, and could be a safety hazard.
Water in the air line will also cause damage. Ensure it is properly maintained at all times.
The recommended procedure to connect this product to an air supply, is shown below. A
filter/regulator should always be placed in line with the supply and the paint pot.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply, has a standard ¼” BSP thread.
Line pressure, or hose inside diameter, should be increased to compensate for unusually
long air hoses (over 10m). Minimum hose diameter should be 6mm (¼") ID., and fittings
should have the same inside dimensions.

FEATURES
This Paint Feed Container is designed primarily for use in spraying oil and solvent
based paint.

METHOD OF OPERATION
WARNING!
ALWAYS check to ensure the container is NOT under pressure, by checking the
pressure gauge and opening the air exhaust valve - turn the knurled ring nut
anticlockwise. Tighten the ring nut once again once all air is exhausted.
1. Fill the container with paint as follows:
• Undo each lid securing wing nut and swing the bolts out of the way.
• Lift off the lid.
• Fill the inner container with paint.
NOTE: It is permissible to fill the container itself, but we strongly recommend the
inner container be used at all times, as it is easier to clean.
• Replace the lid, ensuring the wing nuts are tightened progressively.
NOTE: Models CPP 30 and CPP40 are provided with filler plugs in the lid. These may
be used if preferred, but take care to comply with all precautions before undoing
2. Connect the air supply hose to the air inlet.
NOTE: See notes on Air Supply on page 4.
3. Connect the air hose from the spray gun, to the air outlet.
4. Connect the paint hose from the spray gun to the paint outlet.
5. Ensure the pressure regulator knob is turned fully anticlockwise, then turn ON
the air supply from compressor/air supply to the paint pot.
Where necessary, turn ON the air inlet cock at the cylinder, followed by the
pressure regulator cock.
6. Turn the pressure regulator knob slowly clockwise to pressurise the container.
Working pressure will depend upon the consistency of the medium, but must
NEVER exceed 3bar. If the medium is sluggish at this pressure, then it is of too
thick consistancy, and should not be sprayed.
7. Turn ON the air outlet cock.
8. Turn ON the paint outlet cock. Fig.4
5
9. Finally, make adjustment
to the spray pattern
according to the spray
gun manufacturers
instructions.
The paint should be agitated
at regular intervals during use
to ensure consistancy and
avoid colour difference due
to the paint settling.The CPP5
may be shaken gently.
Prior to use, ensure the casters are properly screwed to their housings where appropriate
A typical configuration is shown in Fig.4.

MAINTENANCE
It is important to clean the complete unit thoroughly at the end of any operation.
1. Turn OFF air to the container.
2. Turn the air exhaust valve knurled ring nut anticlockwise and allow the
container to completely depressurise.
3. Loosen all lid wing nut securing nuts, swing back the bolts and move the lid so
that it rests at one side of the container.
4. Hold the spray gun and hose above the level of the unit and pull the spray
gun trigger to allow paint in the hose to drain back into the container. The
paint cock should be open (where fitted).
5. Empty the container of paint, then clean it thoroughly with solvent or white
spirits etc., depending upon the type of paint being sprayed.
Clean and dry all components that have come into contact with paint -
agitator etc.
6. With the container and other components cleaned thoroughly, pour clean
solvent or other cleaner, into the container.
7. Replace the lid and tighten the wing nuts - progressively.
8. Turn ON the air to the container and pull the spray gun trigger. Keep it pressed
until only clean solvent or other cleaner is ejected from the spray gun.
9. Repeat steps 1 - 4 to allow solvent or other cleaner to drain back into the
container.
10 Finally empty the container and dry all components thoroughly,
Store in a clean dry place, with all cocks closed, and the lid loose.
Periodically, pressurise the container to 5.5bar in order to test the safety valve.
If it does not blow off at this pressure, do not use the appliance...have the Pressure
Relief Valve replaced.
