English term
Short Operation Time (KB): 3 minutes

This is from Instruction Manual of a blender. In actual instructions it is said that the blender should not be used longer than 3 minutes continuously.
At the end of the manual there is Technical Data with this line:
"Short Operation Time (KB): 3 minutes"
Apparently 'Short Operation Time' is one of those; somebody has incorrectly translated the text from some other language, trying to say sth like 'maximum time of continuous operating period'. Or, am I wrong?
Then there is this ‘KB’. I have no idea what it could mean.

As for your KB, it could be anything — if translated from German, it might be something starting with 'kurz...', or it could even be some kind of left-over from a manufacturer's own term, like 'Kwik-Blend', for example!
Unless you can ask the client, I suggest in this instance it is probbaly fairly unimportant and could be simply omitted.
