GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Before using this equipment it is in your own interest to read and pay attention
to the following safety rules.
1. Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries. Keep the work
area well lit.
2. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area.
3. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be locked up in a dry
location. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.
4. Use eye protection. Always wear approved impact safety goggles.
5. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate
any tool when you are tired.
6. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool or equipment, any part
that appears damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it
will operate properly and perform its intended function.
7. Do not operate the equipment if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If
there is any doubt, do not operate the equipment.
COMPRESSED AIR EQUIPMENT
1. Compressed air can be dangerous. Ensure that you are thoroughly familiar
with all precautions relating to the use of compressors and a compressed
air supply.
2. Never direct a jet of compressed air at people or animals.
3. Always ensure that the equipment being used has a safe working pressure
exceeding the output pressure of the compressor that it is connected to.
4. Always ensure that the air supply is turned off at the tool outlet and vent all
compressed air from within the air hose and the equipment attached to it,
before disconnecting air hoses or other equipment from your compressor.
5. Ensure all fixed air connections are properly sealed using teflon tape or
pipe sealant.
PAINT SPRAYING EQUIPMENT
We strongly recommend that paint spraying equipment be used in
conjunction with appropriate eye and face protecting goggles, glasses or
spray masks, available from most DIY and hardware stores.
1. Always keep the equipment perfectly clean. This will not only prolong its
life, but will also ensure you get the best results. See ‘Maintenance.

2. Always ensure there is adequate ventilation. Do not spray or handle paint
in enclosed areas.
3. Never spray close to any source of heat or flame.
4. Always wear a suitable approved breathing mask when spraying, to
protect against inhalation of paint spray or fumes. An air fed mask may be
required when spraying some types of toxic paint. If in doubt, check with
the paint manufacturer.
5. Always check the manufacturer’s data sheets for the paint products being
sprayed for any particular hazards and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. Take particular care if spraying isocyanate paints. Products
used in a spray gun may be covered by COSHH Regulations.
6. Always disconnect the spray gun from the air supply when it is not in use,
and before any disassembly.
7. Never spray paint towards people or animals.
8. In the case of injury, seek expert medical advice immediately. Never
smoke while spraying or preparing paints, or spray near a naked flame,
heat source and electrical sparks. Many paints are flammable.
9. Never tamper with, or attempt to adjust the safety valve.
10. Never tamper with the product or modify it in any way, as this could prove
to be dangerous and will invalidate the guarantee. Only use the product
for the purpose for which it is intended.
11. When replacing parts, only use those supplied by Clarke International as
shown by the parts list on page 10.

AIR SUPPLY
The air supply pressure to the container should be clean and not be greater
than 80 psi. Higher pressure or contaminated air will shorten the spray gun life
because of faster wear, and could become a safety hazard.
Water in the airline will also cause damage and may contaminate the paint
being used. Ensure the air supply is properly filtered.
The recommended procedure to connect the container to an air supply is
described below. A filter/regulator should always be incorporated in the air
supply line.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply has a standard ¼” BSP thread.
Airline pressure, or supply hose inside diameter, should be increased to
compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 10 m). The minimum hose
diameter should be 6mm (¼”) ID and fittings should have the same internal
dimensions.
OPERATION
This CPP2B paint container is designed primarily for spraying oil and solvent
based paint. Clarke International provides a range of spray guns which may
be used with this container. Please see examples on page 11.
WARNING: ALWAYS CHECK TO ENSURE THE CONTAINER IS NOT UNDER
PRESSURE BEFORE USE, BY CHECKING THE PRESSURE GAUGE AND
OPENING THE AIR OUTLET VALVE.
1. Mix the paint to the correct viscosity for spraying according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and strain it into the paint canister through a
fine mesh filter. When mixing the paint, make sure that you have enough
thinners left to clean the spray gun after use.
2. Unscrew the lid and fill the paint
container with paint. Replace the
lid and tighten securely.
3. Connect the air supply hose to
the air inlet, (using a suitable inline connector if required).
4. Connect the (orange) air hose
from the spray gun, to the air
outlet.

5. Connect the paint hose (black) from the spray gun to the paint outlet.
6. Ensure the pressure regulator knob is turned fully anticlockwise, then turn on
the air supply from your compressor/air supply to the paint container.
7. Turn the pressure regulator knob clockwise to pressurise the container until
the required pressure is achieved.
• Working pressure will depend upon the consistency of the paint, but
must never exceed 35 psi. If the paint is sluggish at this pressure, it
should be thinned.
8. Turn on the paint outlet valve.
9. Finally, begin spraying and make adjustments to the spray pattern
according to the spray gun instructions.
10. The paint should be agitated by gentle shaking at regular intervals during
use to ensure consistency and avoid colour differences due to the paint
settling in the container.
11. Set the spray pattern and fluid flow using the adjustment screws on the
spray gun.

MAINTENANCE
It is essential to clean the equipment thoroughly after use. Dried paint in the
outlet and the hoses will undermine the performance of the equipment.
CLEANING PROCEDURE
1. Turn off the air supply to the container.
2. Open the air outlet valve.
3. Discharge the remaining pressure in the spraygun such that any paint
sprayed will land harmlessly on newspaper or similar.
4. Hold the spray gun and hose above the level of the container and pull the
spray gun trigger to allow any paint in the hose to drain back into the
container.
5. Empty the container of paint, before cleaning it thoroughly with solvent,
depending upon the type of paint being sprayed. Use a small bristle brush
and solvent to wash off accumulated paint.
6. With the container and other components cleaned thoroughly, pour clean
solvent or other cleaning agent into the container.
7. Replace the lid.
8. Turn on the air supply to the container and pull the spray gun trigger. Keep
it pressed until only clean solvent or other cleaner is discharged from the
spray gun.
9. 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.
SAFETY CHECKS
1. Periodically before use, pressurise the container to 35 psi (2.5 bar) in order
to test the safety valve. If it does not release at this pressure, do not use the
container. Have the valve replaced immediately.
2. Inspect both the air and paint hoses for wear or damage periodically, and
replace if necessary. Do not use damaged or leaking hoses.
