Anvil, closing around the end of Pin. The
Anvil will be forced forward toward the
Collar Flange to complete the Collar
swaging/forming.
10. Release the tool Trigger when the
Collar is fully swaged or the Nose
Assembly stops moving. When the Nose
Assembly Anvil is free from the Collar, the
Puller will release from the end of the Pin
and enable the Tool/Nose Assembly to be
removed from the installed fastener.
11. The installed fastener should be
checked with a Bobtail Fastener
inspection Gauge to ensure correct Collar
swage. Adjust the Main Pressure Relief
Valve if necessary.
Note:
Set a Pull Pressure just above the minimum
pressure required for the Nose Assembly
Anvil to just lightly contact the Collar
Flange. A circular witness mark around the
Collar flange will indicate the Anvil contact.
On most large diameter (12 mm (1/2”) and
above), Bobtail Collars have a series of
raised nodules around the flange which will
be crushed by contact with the Anvil.
Do not adjust the Pull Pressure too high as
this increases the risk of Bobtail grooves
being stripped/damaged or the Bobtail
portion of the pin being broken away from
the pin. In either event, this will prevent a
Bobtail Collar Cutter from being used to
remove the installed fastener
