What Charger to use on AGM battery

Yes, it will work fine but you'll benefit in the long run by having a dedicated charger.

As a rule of thumb your battery charger should be 10% - 20% of the Ah rating of the battery. E.g A 100Ah battery would require a 10 Amp charger as a minimum. To prevent overcharging, you should keep the charger size to within 30% of the total capacity.

the batttery I am looking at has 105ah rating

So I should use the 10a setting on the charger correct??

Based on what I wrote above you could use up to 30 amps so I would use 10 or 20 (on board chargers typically max out at 15A). Most important thing is not to partially charge or leave it discharged for long periods.
