A hand held spray gun (10) which reduces operator fatigue and stress. The gun handle (14) has an ergonomically designed shape and the size of the handle may be changed using different size handle covers (25). The gun (10) has a plurality of triggers (31, 42, 44, 45) operated by different fingers (50, 51) when the gun is held in different orientations to reduce fatigue and operating frequency stress on an operator's fingers. Some triggers operate low force valves which supply pilot air to a pilot valve which opens the fluid and air valves. Paint and air hoses (38, 40) may be attached to alternate locations on the gun (10) to reduce hand and wrist fatigue when painting vertical or horizontal surfaces. A junction box (99, 100) may be included to allow the connection of lighter weight hoses (38, 40) to the gun and may include an optional trigger valve (110) to remotely trigger the fluid and air valves in the gun. <IMAGE> |
