manual. Save these instructions.
DESCRIPTION
The Model 7004 2-quart pressure cup is designed to be used with
any pressure feed manual spray gun where more than one quart
of material is to be used. Pressure cups will provide a better
degree of control over atomizing air and fluid pressure than
siphon feed equipment. The Model 7004 will enable you to spray
a wider range of refinish materials and has a full 2-quart capacity
when needed.

2-QUART PRESSURE CUP
• Air pressure in the cup never to exceed 50 PSI.
• Never tamper with the relief valve. The relief valve limits the maximum air pressure entering the cup. If the relief
valve does not work properly, over-pressurization may occur and cause the cup to rupture or explode.
• Always disconnect cup assembly from air supply and release pressure in cup (open release valve counterclockwise) before installing or removing the canister from the lid assembly.
SET-UP FOR SPRAYING
1. Connect air hose to air inlet of gun and to air outlet on cup regulator as shown.
2. Connect fluid hose to fluid inlet of gun and to cup fluid outlet as shown.
3. Connect handle to top of cup as shown.
4. It is best for the air supply line to pass through a SHARPE Air Control Unit to filter dirt from the air and extract water
and oil. Connect the air supply hose to the air inlet fitting on cup regulator.
Note: Follow the manufacturer’s directions for the mixing and preparation of material. Strain material using a fine mesh
screen in order to prevent the entry of foreign matter and the clogging of fluid passageways.

OPERATION
1. Pull out regulator knob and turn fully counter-clockwise. Open
release valve on cup lid (counter-clockwise).
2. Open lid and fill cup with desired sprayable material.
3. Close lid and seal by turning clockwise hand-tight.
4. Close release valve on cup lid hand-tight turning clockwise.
5. Set wall-mounted regulator (not supplied) to desired PSI (this
is your atomizing air).
6. Slowly turn the cup regulator knob clockwise while pulling the
gun trigger fully back to commence material flow. Continue
clockwise until desired material flow is achieved. Push in regulator knob to lock. Maximum cup pressure is 50 PSI.
7. To decrease paint flow, pull out regulator knob and turn counter-clockwise to lower cup pressure. Open the release valve to
bleed off excess pressure. Reseal release valve. Repeat step
6. The cup lid has a check valve that prevents the cup from
losing pressure until the release valve is opened.
8. Atomizing air for the spray gun can be adjusted at the gun by
means of an air adjusting valve on the spray gun.
Note: To achieve desired cup pressure you must always start at a
lower pressure and adjust up to the desired setting.

Cleaning your cup.
1. After relieving cup pressure and turning cup pressure regulator to the full “off ” position (counter-clockwise), open cup
lid by turning counter-clockwise.
2. Pour out any remaining material and add a compatible solvent.
3. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 6 in OPERATION section above and spray until clean solvent appears. Cup and gun material
passages should be clean now.
4. Depressurize cup (OPERATION step 1) and empty remaining solvent from cup and wipe clean with a solvent soaked
cloth.
NOTICE
Never clean your Model 7004 in a gun washer. The
safety valve, regulator body and gauge will be damaged by use in a gun washer. The canister only can be
cleaned in a gun washer.
• Paint can erupt from the cup due to rapid depressurization. Never open the cup prior to turning cup pressure
regulator knob to the full “off” position (counter-clockwise) and relieving cup pressure by opening (counterclockwise) release valve.
