SE214 1/4˝ Air Hydraulic Rivet Gun
AIR SUPPLY
Tools of this class operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is
recommended that air pressure measures 90 PSI at the tool with the
trigger fully depressed and no load applied to the tool. Higher pressure
and unclean air will shorten tool life and may create a hazardous
condition. Water in the air line will cause damage to the tool. Drain
water from air lines and compressor prior to running tool. Clean the air
inlet filter screen weekly. The recommended hook-up procedure can be
viewed in Figure 1.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply, has standard 1/4" NPT
American Thread.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long
air hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be 3/8" I.D. and
fittings should have the same inside dimensions.
LUBRICATION
Lubricate the air motor daily with high quality air tool oil. If no air line
oiler is used, run 1/2 oz. of oil through the tool. The oil can be squirted
into the tool air inlet or into the hose at the nearest connection to the air
supply, then run the tool. A rust inhibitive oil is acceptable for air tools.
WARNING:
After an air tool has been lubricated, oil will discharge
through the exhaust port during the first few seconds of operation. The
exhaust port must be covered with a towel before applying air pressure
to prevent serious injury.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or erratic
action. Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line,
moisture or restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections
of improper size or poor condition may reduce air supply. Grit or gum
deposits in the tool may cut power and may be corrected by cleaning
the air strainer and flushing out the tool with gum solvent oil or an equal
mixture of SAE #10 oil and kerosene. If outside conditions are in order,
and the tool continues erratic action or low power, disconnect tool from
hose and contact your nearest authorized service center.

Troubleshooting for the Head of the Rivet Gun
1. Always turn off the air supply, drain hose of air pressure and detach tool from air supply before installing, removing or adjusting any part or
accessory on this tool, or before performing any maintenance on this tool.
2. Use the spanner to remove the head from the frame. (Fig. 1)
3. Use the spanner to remove the Jaw Housing, Jaws, Jaw Pusher, and the Pusher Spring. (Fig. 2)
4. Thoroughly clean the inside of the Frame Head. (Fig. 3)
5. Use a light gauge machine oil to lubricate the parts shown in figure 4.
6. Re-assemble the Rivet Gun and check the length of the Rivet Gun Head by using the spanner as shown in figure 5.
