PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

 

When  the  actuator  lever  assy  is  depressed,  the  pressurized  air  inside  of  the  tool  is  released  allowing  spring pressure  to  move  the 
valve  spool  assy  causing  the  air  to  be  redirected.    The  air  is  directed  to  the  top  of  the  air  piston  assy,  moving  it  in  a  downward 
direction.  The  air  below  the  air  piston  assy  is  then  directed  through  the  valve  sleeve  and  exhausted  out  of  the  bottom  of  the  tool. 
Simultaneously, the piston rod assy connected to the air piston assy is also moving down, forcing hydraulic oil up and into the front 
side  of  the  head  cylinder  assy,  causing  the  piston  to  move  to  the  rear  of  the  head  cylinder  assy.  The  internal  components  of  the 
attached nose assembly are also moving with the piston to start the fastener installation.  When the fastener installation is completed, 
the actuator lever assy is released. Air pressure is then built up inside of the handle assy causing the valve spool assy to return to its 
original position and reversing the sequence directing air pressure to the rear of the head cylinder assy, causing the piston to move to 
the forward position.

HOW TO USE THE GB704SH 

 

WARNING: 

 

Operator 

MUST 

read and understand all warnings and cautions.

 

 

WARNING: 

 

It is required that eye protection and hearing protection be worn during operation. 

 

 

WARNING: 

 

Do not pull rivet in the air. Personal injury from fastener ejecting may occur.

 

 

WARNING: 

 

Air is exhausted from the bottom of the too. Direct bottom of the tool (exhausted air) away from operator, other 

persons working in the vicinity, foreign matter and liquid.

 

 

CAUTION: 

 

Do not use beyond the design intent.

 

 
 

The tool is shipped with a plastic plug in the air inlet connector.  The connector has a 1/4-18 female pipe thread to accept end-user air 
hose fitting.  The tool comes with oil and is ready to use.

 

 
 

1.  Remove plastic shipping plug from Swivel (A-249) and screw in your air fitting. 

 

2. Attach deflector (200232) to rear of head cylinder assy (704182). 

 
 

WARNING: 

 

Rotate deflector away from operator and other persons working in the vicinity. 

 

 
  3.  Connect air hose with 90 psi. to tool (3/8 minimum diameter air line is mandatory, 90 psi. is recommended) and cycle tool a few 

times by depressing and releasing actuator. (Clean dry air is mandatory). 

 

 

WARNING: 

 

Ensure air hose is securely connected to avoid possible hose whipping. 

 
  4.  Disconnect air hose from tool. 
 
  5.

  

Select proper Nose Assembly, screw collet and anvil onto the tool and attach securely. (See proper data sheet for  further instructions.) 

 

  6.

  

Connect air supply.

 

 

  7.

  

Insert rivet into Nose Assembly and the application then depress actuator. Upon releasing the actuator the stem will eject to the 

rear of the tool. 

 

 

 

WARNING: 

 

Always disconnect air supply when tool is not in use to prevent accidental start-up.
