HAZARD CAUSE SAFEGUARDS
Prevention of possible hazards.
Fire
Solvent and coatings can be highly
flammable or combustible especially
when sprayed.
Adequate exhaust must be provided to
keep air free of accumulations of flammable
vapours.
Smoking must never be allowed in the spray
area.
Fire extinguishing equipment must be
present in the spray area.
Solvent Spray
During use and while cleaning and
flushing, solvents can be forcefully
expelled from fluid and air passages.
Some solvents can cause eye injury.
Wear eye protection.
Inhaling Toxic
Substances
Certain materials may be harmful if
inhaled, or if there is contact with the
skin.
Follow the requirements of the Safety Data
Sheet supplied by your coating material
manufacturer.
Adequate exhaust must be provided to
keep the air free of accumulations of toxic
materials.
Use a mask or respirator whenever there
is a chance of inhaling sprayed materials.
The mask must be compatible with the
material being sprayed and its concentration.
Equipment must be as prescribed by an
industrial hygienist or safety expert, and be
NIOSH approved.
Explosion Hazard –
Incompatible
Materials
Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents
– for example; methylene chloride
and 1,1,1,-Trichloroethane are not
chemically compatible with the
aluminium that might be used in
many system components. The
chemical reaction caused by these
solvents reacting with aluminium
can become violent and lead to an
equipment explosion.
Guns with stainless steel internal
passageways may be used with these
solvents. However, aluminium is widely used
in other spray application equipment – such
as material pumps, regulators, valves, and
cups. Check all equipment items before use
and make sure they can also be used safely
with these solvents.
Read the label or data sheet for the material
you intend to spray. If in doubt as to whether
or not a coating or cleaning material is
compatible, contact your material supplier.

www.binks.com SB-2-252-R8 (08/2025)3 / 16
HAZARD CAUSE SAFEGUARDS
Prevention of possible hazards.
General Safety Improper operation or maintenance
of equipment.
Operators should be given adequate
training in the safe use and maintenance
of the equipment (in accordance with the
requirements of NFPA-33, Chapter 15).
Users must comply with all local and national
codes of practice and insurance company
requirements governing ventilation, fire
precautions, operation, maintenance, and
housekeeping. These are OSHA Sections
1910.94 and 1910.107 and NFPA-33.
Cumulative Trauma
disorders (CTD’s)
CTD’s, or
musculoskeletal
disorders, involve
damage to the
hands, wrists,
elbow, shoulders,
neck and back.
Carpal tunnel
syndrome
and tendonitis
(such as tennis
elbow or rotator
cuff syndrome) are
examples of CTD’s.
Use of hand tools may cause
cumulative trauma disorders
(CTD’s).
CTD’s, when using hand
tools, tend to affect the upper
extremities. Factors which may
increase the risk of developing a
CTD include:
1. �High frequency of the activity.
2. �Excessive force, such as
gripping, pinching,
or pressing with the hands and
fingers.
3. �Extreme or awkward finger,
wrist, or
arm positions.
4. �Excessive duration of the
activity.
5. �Tool vibration.
6. �Repeated pressure on a body
part.
7. �Working in cold temperatures.
CTD’s can also be caused by
such activities as sewing, golf,
tennis, and bowling, to name a
few.
Pain, tingling, or numbness in the shoulder,
forearm, wrist, hands, or fingers, especially
during the night, may be early symptoms of
a CTD. Do not ignore them.
Should you experience any such symptoms,
see a physician immediately. Other early
symptoms may include vague discomfort
in the hand, loss of manual dexterity, and
nonspecific pain in the arm.
Ignoring early symptoms and continued
repetitive use of the arm, wrist, and hand
can lead to serious disability. Risk is reduced
by avoiding or lessening factors 1-7.

04 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
JGA-510 CONVENTIONAL SPRAY GUN
MAJOR REPAIR KIT KK-4987-2 (GOVERNMENT NSN
NO. 4940-01-046-9919 = KK-4987-2)
The JGA-510 can be utilized with the wide range of air
caps and needles. It is a general purpose, heavy duty,
high production spray gun suitable for use with most
types of materials. The fluid tip and needle and internal
fluid passages are stainless steel.
Conversion to HVLP – The JGA-510, plus JGA-503
models, can be converted to HVLP if desired. Contact
Binks for information.
NOTICE
This gun includes 300 series stainless steel fluid
passages and 300/400 series tip and needle. Guns may
be used with chlorinated solvent materials, but see
SAFETY section for additional warnings.
NOTICE
Important: This gun may be used with most common
coating and finishing materials. It is designed for use
with mildly corrosive and non-abrasive materials. If used
with other high corrosive or abrasive materials, it must
be expected that frequent and thorough cleaning will be
required and the necessity for replacement of parts will
be increased.
04.1 OPERATION
NOTICE
Protective coating and rust inhibitors have been used
to keep the gun in good condition prior to shipment.
Before using the gun, flush it with solvent so that these
materials will be removed from fluid passages.
Strain material thru 60 or 90 mesh screen. Adjust fluid
pressure to deliver the desired paint volume. Adjust air
pressure and flow to provide a uniform dispersion of
atomized paint throughout the pattern. Keep air pressure
as low as possible to minimize bounce – back and
overspray. Excessive fluid flow will result in heavy center
spray patterns. Inadequate flows may cause the pattern
to split. See TROUBLESHOOTING if any problems
occur.
04.2 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
To clean air cap and fluid tip, brush exterior with a stiff
bristle brush. If necessary to clean cap holes, use a
broom straw or toothpick. Never use a wire or hard
instrument. This may scratch or burr holes causing a
distorted spray pattern.
To clean fluid passages, remove excess material at
source, then flush with a suitable solvent using a device
such as the SolventSaver™. Wipe gun exterior with a
solvent dampened cloth. Never completely immerse in
solvent as this is detrimental to the lubricants and
packings.
NOTICE
When replacing the fluid tip or fluid needle, replace
both at the same time. Using worn parts can cause
fluid leakage. Also, replace the needle packing at this
time. Lightly lubricate the threads of the fluid tip before
reassembling. Torque to 20-25 ft. lbs.
Do not overtighten the fluid tip.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the fluid tip (4) or fluid needle
(33), be sure to either 1) pull the trigger and hold while
tightening or loosening the fluid tip or 2) remove fluid
needle adjusting screw (28) to relieve spring pressure
against needle collar.
04.3 FLUID INLET GASKET (7)
REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
1. � Remove fluid inlet adapter with appropriate wrench.
2. � Clean Loctite from gun body inlet threads and seal
area.
3. � Place gasket (7) squarely onto the fluid inlet adapter
and push it down until it is flat against the boss.
4. � Place a couple of drops of medium strength blue No.
242 Loctite on threads before installing fluid inlet
adapter.
