5.1.2. With the riveter handles extended and open, fully insert the rivet shaft into the mandrel.
5.1.3. Place rivet in hole in the workpiece and squeeze the riveter handles closed to deform the rivet.
5.1.4. If the rivet stem does not shear, open the handles, push the riveter further onto the stem and
then close the handles again.
