user-Maintenance instructions
procedures not specifically explained in this manual must
be performed only by a qualified technician.
tO prEVEnt SEriOuS inJury FrOM acciDEntaL OpEratiOn:
turn off the tool, detach the air supply, safely discharge any residual air pressure in the tool, and
release the trigger before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
tO prEVEnt SEriOuS inJury FrOM tOOL FaiLurE:
Do not use damaged equipment. if abnormal noise, vibration,
or leaking air occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
tO prEVEnt SErOuS inJury FrOM EXpLOSiOn:
Lubricate the tool only with specified lubricants. Lubricate the air inlet using only
pneumatic tool oil. Other lubricants may damage the mechanism and may be
highly flammable, causing an explosion.
cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication
note:
These procedures are in addition to the regular checks and maintenance
explained as part of the regular operation of the air-operated tool.
1.
BEFOrE EacH uSE,
inspect the general
condition of the tool. Check for:
• loose hardware or housing
• misalignment or binding of moving parts
• cracked or broken parts
• any other condition that may
affect its safe operation.
2.
aFtEr EVEry uSE,
wipe exterior with a clean,
damp cloth using a mild detergent or isopropyl
alcohol. Do not immerse the tool in liquids.
3.
Daily - air Supply Maintenance:
Every day, maintain the air supply according
to the component manufacturers' instructions.
Maintain the lubricator's oil level.
Drain the moisture filter regularly.
Performing routine air supply maintenance
will allow the tool to operate more safely
and will also reduce wear on the tool.
4.
Quarterly (every 3 months) –
tool Disassembly, cleaning, and inspection:
Have the internal mechanism cleaned, inspected,
and lubricated by a qualified technician.
Jaw cleaning and replacement
1. Unscrew and remove the Outer
Cylinder using the Wrench.
2. Unscrew and remove the Jaw Case
from the Jaw Cylinder.
3. Remove the Jaws from the Jaw Case.
8. Hold the Riveter firmly against the workpiece
and squeeze the Trigger to activate the
Riveter, then release the Trigger.
9. Check to be sure the rivet looks solid and
securely locks the workpiece together.
• If the installed rivet is too loose, the workpiece
sections are not locked together and will move.
This indicates the rivet pin was not adequately
pulled through the workpiece. Either the
wrong size rivet was used or the Jaw Case is
too loose and not gripping the rivet pin well
enough to pull it fully through the workpiece.
• A concave, deformed, or broken rivet head
indicates the rivet pin was pulled too far into the
workpiece. Either the wrong size rivet was used
or the Jaw Case is too tight and not properly
releasing the rivet pin during installation.
10. 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 does not have sufficient force at
maximum pressure and sufficient airflow,
then a larger tool may be required.
11. After use, release the trigger, detach the air supply,
and safely discharge any residual air pressure in
the tool. Clean external surfaces of the tool as
described in
user-Maintenance instructions
.
Store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
