You will need to pre-punch a hole in your material to set a
grommet. To achieve the best results, we recommend testing
a few grommets in some scrap leather using the troubleshooting
tips on page 17 as your guide.
1) Insert the appropriate anvil and driver for the grommet you want
to set (#00, #0, #1, #2, #3, #4). Secure the anvil with the set
screw located at the front of the anvil adapter using a 5/32" Allen
wrench
(Figure 49)
. Insert the driver into the driver shaft and
secure with the thumb screw
(Figure 50)
.
2) It is important to obtain the proper distance between the anvil and
the driver. Turn clockwise to raise the driver or counterclockwise
to lower the driver
(Figure 51)
.
3) Grommet sets in the anvil (bottom setter)
(Figure 52)
; place
pre-punched leather onto grommet
(Figure 53)
; lay washer on
top of leather
(Figure 54)
. Important: Top/good side of leather
should be face down.
4) Pull the handle forward until grommet is set
(Figure 55)
