SAFETYOPERATIONMAINTENANCE SETUP
Workpiece and Work Area Set Up
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit.
The work area must not allow access by children
or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2. Route the air hose along a safe route to reach
the work area without creating a tripping hazard
or exposing the air hose to possible damage.
The air hose must be long enough to reach
the work area with enough extra length to
allow free movement while working.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps
(not included) to prevent movement while working.
4. There must not be hazardous objects
(such as utility lines or foreign objects) nearby
that will present a hazard while working.
General Operating Instructions
1. If an automatic oiler is not used, add a few
drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline
connection before use. Add a few drops
more after each hour of continual use.
2. Secure the Pin Cap (9) firmly to the
Riveter by tightening the Pin Cap Nut (10).
While securing, turn the slot in the Pin Cap
upward to avoid spilling used rivet pins.
3. Depending on the size of rivet’s pin used, attach
the corresponding Nosepiece size (1/8", 5/32",
3/16", or 1/4") with the Wrench (51).
IMPORTANT: When drilling rivet holes in a
workpiece, use the same diameter drill bit as
the outer diameter of rivet being used.
WARNING! Verify that work surface has
no hidden utility lines before drilling.
4. Attach an air hose to the Air Inlet of the Riveter.
5. Turn on the air compressor, and set its regulator to
the needed pressure. Do not exceed the tool’s
maximum air pressure rating.
6. Insert the small end of a rivet fully through
the Nosepiece (1A, 1B, 1C, or 1D).
CAUTION! Keep clear of the trigger
when inserting rivets.
7. Insert the rivet through the predrilled
hole in the workpiece.
8. Hold the Riveter firmly against the workpiece
with both hands, and squeeze the Trigger to
activate the Riveter. Repeat as necessary.
Then, release pressure on the Trigger.
9. If the tool requires more force to accomplish
the task, verify that the tool receives sufficient,
unobstructed airflow (CFM) and increase the
pressure (PSI) output of the regulator up to the
maximum air pressure rating of this tool.
CAUTION! TO PREVENT INJURY FROM
TOOL OR ACCESSORY FAILURE:
Do not exceed the tool’s
maximum air pressure rating.
If the tool still does not have sufficient force
at maximum pressure and sufficient airflow,
then a larger tool may be required.
10. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool, detach
the air supply, safely discharge any residual
air pressure in the tool, and release the trigger
after use. Clean external surfaces of the tool with
clean, dry cloth, and apply a thin coat of tool oil.
Then store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
