Important：Read and follow all instructions and SAFETY PRECAUTIONS before using this equipment.
DESCRIPTION
T-AGPZ GUN is a low flow rate automatic spray gun specifically designed and suited for spraying small objects. This spray gun
also has greatly improved maintenance performance thanks to the use of tungsten carbide in the fluid tip and needle which
dramatically improves durability and anti-clogging properties, along with our industry-first 2 sep triggering system, which cuts
cleaning time during color change to approximately half of what it was.
The compact, lightweight T-AGPZ gun is suitable for installing with robots or automatic spindle machines application, etc.

WARNING
The following hazards may occur during the normal use of this equipment. Please read the following chart.
HAZARD CAUSE SAFEGUARDS
Fire
Solvents and coatings can be highly
flammable or combustible, especially
when sprayed.
1. Adequate exhaust must be provided to keep
the air free of accumulations of flammable
vapors.
2. Smoking must never be allowed in the spray
area.
3. Fire extinguishing equipment must be
present in the spray area.
4. Static discharges must be prevented.
Ground(earth) all conductive objects in the
spray area, such as a cleaning solvent
bucket, fire extinguisher, etc.
5. When using solvents for cleaning:
• Those used for equipment flushing must
have a flash point equal to or greater than
that of the coating.
• Those used for general cleaning must
have flash points above 100°F (37.8°C).
Inhaling Toxic Substances
Certain materials may be harmful if
inhaled or if there is contact with the
skin.
1. Follow the requirements of the Material
Safety Data Sheet supplied by coating
material manufacturer.
2. Adequate exhaust must be provided to keep
the air free of accumulations of toxic
materials.
3. 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
aluminum that might be used in
many system components. The
chemical reaction caused by these
solvents reacting with aluminum can
become violent and lead to an
equipment explosion.
The T-AGPZ spray gun cannot be used with
these solvents.
Aluminum is widely used in other spray
application equipment – such as material
pumps, cups, regulators, valves, etc.
Check all other equipment items before use of
these solvents. Read the label or data sheet for
the material you intend to spray. If in doubt as to
where or not a coating or cleaning material is
compatible, contact your material supplier.

HAZARD CAUSE SAFEGUARDS
General Safety Improper operation or maintenance
may create a hazard.
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 in U.S.). Users must
comply with all local and national codes of
practice and insurance company requirements
governing ventilation, fire precautions, operation,
maintenance and housekeeping (in the U.S.,
these are OSHA Sections 1910.94 and
1910.107 and NFPA-33).
Noise Levels
The continuous A-weighted sound
pressure level of this spray gun may
exceed 85dB(A) depending on the
air cap/nozzle set-up being used.
Sound levels are measured using an
impulse sound level meter and
analyzer, when the gun is being used
in a normal spraying application.
Details of actual noise levels
produced by the various air
cap/nozzle set-ups are available on
request.
Wear earplugs when using the spray gun.
Spraying solvent
Pressured air/fluid passage may be
broken when cleaning or flashing
with solvent.
The solvent may be harmful if
contacted with eyes.
Always wear eye protection when spraying or
cleaning the equipment.
Misuse:
• All spray guns project particles at high velocity and must never be aimed t any part of body.
• Never exceed the recommended safe working pressure for any of the equipment used.
• The fitting of non-recommended or non-original accessories or spare parts may create hazardous conditions.
• Before dismantling the equipment for cleaning or maintenance, all pressures, air and material, must be isolated and
released.
Disposal of non-metallic materials must be carried out in an approved manner. Burning may generate toxic fumes.
The removal of waste solvents and coating materials should be carried out by an authorized local waste disposal service.
