AIR SUPPLY 
  The rivet tool is powered by compressed air at an optimum pressure of 85 psi. 
Do not exceed 90 PSI of air pressure. Explosion and harm to operators can result. 
  The use of a pressure regulator filter/lubricator unit within 3 meters of the tool is highly 
recommended to extend the life of the tool. 
Dirt and/or water in the air supply can seriously impact the performance and durability of 
the tool; damage to the tool caused by contaminated air supply is not covered under 
warranty.
