The tool can be operated in the following manners:
1) with the mandrel container removed in position 0:
Suction switches off by turning and removing the mandrel container /fig.1 ‐ pos.32/. Insert BR into the riveting
tool through the nose‐piece hole. Depress the trigger to move the jaws offward the BR head. The movement
ends when reaching max. stroke, correct BR with respect for material gauge shall tear off the shank (riveting)
for one stroke of the tool. Releasing the trigger shall return the jaws to initial position and released torn‐off
shank can be removed from the nose‐piece by tilting the tool. /fig.1 ‐ pos.1/.
2) with the mandrel container mounted in position 1:
Mounting and turning the mandrel container /fig.1 ‐ pos.32/ to position 1 shall arrest it. Insert BR into the
riveting tool through the nose‐piece hole. Depress the trigger to move the jaws offward the BR head. The
movement ends when reaching max. stroke, correct BR with respect for material gauge shall tear off the shank
(riveting) for one stroke of the tool. Releasing the trigger shall return the jaws to initial position and the
released torn‐off shank can be transported into the mandrel container by tilting the tool.
3) with the mandrel container mounted in position 2:
Suction switches on by turning the mandrel container /fig.1 ‐ pos.32/ to position 2. In this position the suction
holds BR in the nose‐piece /fig.1 ‐ pos.1/ which enables riveting in any position without danger of BR falling out
of the nose‐piece of the tool. Depressing the trigger shall perform riveting. Releasing the trigger shall transport
the shank into the mandrel container. If the mandrel container is full with shank to appx. 70%, it is necessary to
remove and empty it in a specified manner (e.g. to a prepared container). Overfill of the mandrel container
may result in failure of the riveting tool.
3. TOOL MAINTENANCE
During maintenance the tool must be disconnected from the source of compressed air !!!
3.1. Daily maintenance
Before starting work, apply several drops of lubricating oil (we recommend hydraulic oil HYSPIN AWHM 32
CASTROL) into the air inlet of the tool, on condition there is no lubricating device connected in the air
distribution.
Check the tool for air leakage, if necessary replace damaged hoses and clasps.
If the pressure regulator is not equipped with a filter, blow through the air hose before its connection to the
tool in order to get rid of impurities and water. If the pressure regulator has a filter, dry it out.
Check whether the fixed nose‐piece corresponds to the BR diameter and that all screw threads and joints are
tightened properly.
Check whether the holes for passage are really empty. If it is not so, it is necessary to remove the damaged
part, clean the hole or replace the damaged part with a new one, see paragraph 3.2 weekly maintenance.
3.2. Weekly maintenance
Cleaning of the tool and replacement of worn or non‐functional parts.
