Care and Maintenance
BRV250HD
Regular service should be performed on this tool for best performance and
longer life of tool.
1. Empty Mandrel Bottle before it gets more than 1/3 full of mandrels. Too
many mandrels in collector can damage the Hydraulic Plunger and/or cause
a hazardous condition for the operator.
2. Insure that jaws are clean and free of metal shavings, dirt and oil. Clean
serrations in Jaw pieces with a wire brush or steel wool to remove debris.
3. Keep oil at optimum level. With use of 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.
-
Change nosepiece to largest diameter that the tool accepts. This
is necessary in order to test the tool after the oil has been filled.
-
Remove air supply to Riveter, and remove Oil Plug (#13) on top of
Riveter using Allen wrench (included).
-
Use proper oil as listed under Specifications. Put small
amount of oil in a saucer or cup; place syringe nozzle
(syringe included) down into oil, then draw plunger of
syringe back to fill body of syringe. Fill to 9.
-
Screw syringe nozzle into Riveter in top hole where Oil Plug (#13)
was removed. Very slowly push in plunger of syringe to deliver oil
into tool.
-
Unscrew syringe nozzle from Riveter and insert Oil Plug
(#13) back into Riveter; tighten Oil Plug firmly. Reconnect
Riveter to air supply and depress trigger 2-3 times.
-
To test oil level, insert rivet into Nosepiece (use largest
diameter rivet that tool accepts). Check to see if rivet
mandrel can be inserted completely into Nosepiece
– head
of rivet must touch Nosepiece. If rivet cannot be
completely inserted into tool, too much oil has been added
and some must be removed.
-
To remove excess oil, unscrew Oil Plug (#13)
approximately 1/4 turn. Depress and release the trigger to
cycle air through the Riveter
– oil will leak from the top of
the tool at the Oil Plug hole as trigger is depressed.
-
Wipe excess oil off of tool as you continue to depress and
release the trigger as needed, until rivet head touches the
Nosepiece. Once tool is properly adjusted, tighten Oil Plug
(#13) completely with Allen wrench.
- Save plunger for future use.
