MAINTENANCE
Regular services should be performed on the tool, in order to assure that the riveter could work properly and
have a longer life.
1.
Empty the mandrel collector before it gets more than 1/3 full of mandrels. Too many mandrels in it can
damage the hydraulic plunger and/or cause a hazardous condition for the operator.
2.
Keep jaws are clean and free of metal shavings, dirt and oil. To do it, remove the nosepiece (#01) and the
head (#02) from the riveter; then remove the 3 jaws, and clean them with a wire brush or a steel wool to
remove the debris.
3.
Keep the oil at optimum level. With the use of the tool there may be a gradual loss of oil. When you notice a
reduction in the stroke, you need to add a small amount of oil.
In order to do it:
-
Insert the 4,8 mm nosepiece (the largest diameter that the tool accepts). This is necessary in order to
test the tool after the oil has been filled.
-
Remove the air supply from the riveter and remove the screw (#51) on top of the riveter using Allen
wrench (included) in order to open the oil hole.
Remove oil plug
-
Put a small amount of hydraulic oil in a saucer or a cup and fill the syringe with it.
-
Screw the syringe nozzle into the riveter oil hole where the screw (# 51) was removed. Push the
plunger of the syringe very slowly to deliver oil into tool.
Add oil
-
Unscrew the syringe nozzle from the riveter and insert the screw (# 51), then reconnect the tool to
the air supply and depress the trigger 2-3 times.
-
To test the oil level, insert a large-size rivet into the nosepiece and check if the mandrel can be
inserted completely into the nosepiece (the rivet head must touch the nosepiece). If the rivet cannot
be completely inserted into the tool, too much oil has been added and some must be removed.
