Adjusting the riveting tool
Measuring stroke (H)
Note
When using an internal-thread mandrel (3), you must first screw
in a grub screw of the corresponding size.
Attention
Material damage! If you do not know the stroke setting,
unscrew the adjustment screw (6.1) a few turns (ca. 5 mm) for
the automatic switch over to the left-handed rotation. This is to
ensure that the piston will not hit the back and the riveting tool
will not be damaged.
• Establish an air supply (max. 7 bar).
• Measure the projecting length L of the mandrel (4) or grub screw (G)
• Press the trigger (12) right through and hold.
• Measure the remaining length B of the mandrel (4) or grub screw.
• Release the trigger (12).
Length L minus length B gives the actual stroke H (L-B=H).
• If necessary correct the stroke (H)
(see adjustment of stroke H on page 19).
• Adjust the adjustment screw (6.1).
Attention
Material damage! Always readjust the nose piece after every
stroke adjustment. Perform a sample riveting to check if sound
riveting is possible.
Note
Check the stroke adjustment every 300 rivetings or after 25
operating hours.
