exterior and should be armoured where operating conditions may result in hoses being
damaged. All air hoses shall have a minimum bore diameter of 6.4 millimetres or 1/4

to the left to reduce it, to the
right to extend the stroke length. Each stroke step changes the stroke length by 0.1 mm.
To determine the correct stroke, it is recommended to place some blind rivet nuts in a
test plate with the same sheet thickness and hole diameter as the original sheet.
