GENERAL OPERATION
AIR SUPPLY
Adjust your air compressor air pressure to 90-120psi, (6.21-8.28 Bars).
NOTE:
If you use extra long air hoses more than 50 feet long you may have to increase the air pressure to compensate for reduced air operating pressure.
Always use clean, dry air that has been filtered and is free of dust, corrosives fumes or moisture. You should drain the air tank daily and
clean the filtering system as needed. Using more air pressure will shorten that air tool's life and may lead to premature failure of this Air
Riveter Gun and could cause injury. Use the standard air supply information located in the above diagram.
The oil and water extractor should not be mounted on or near the air
compressor.
The temperature of air is greatly increased during compression. As the air
cools down to room temperature in the air line while on its way to the air
power tool, the moisture contained in it condenses. Thus, for maximum
effectiveness, the oil and water extractor should be mounted at some point
in the air supply system where the temperature of the compressed air in the
line is likely to be lowest. Air lines must be properly drained daily. Each low
point in an air line acts as a water trap. Such points should be fitted with an
easily accessible drain. See diagram below. Pitch all air lines back towards
the compressor so that condensed moisture will flow back into the air
receiver where it can be drained off. Drain daily.

AIR RIVETER - 1/4" CAPACITY
After unpacking the air powered rivet gun, make sure all of
the parts listed are supplied. In addition to parts supplied
are two wrenches you will need for replacement of various
parts on the SE1214. Keep the packages containing
wrenches, one 3/32
" rivet nosepiece, one set of jaws and
the bottle in a safe place. Install the plastic rivet catcher
(bottle) (#PR14-15) and add the 1/4 NPT air nipple to the air
inlet side located near the base. Add a few drops of air tool
oil or #10 Spindle oil to the air inlet near the base of the air
riveter also add a drop or two of oil to the Nose Piece Jaws
(#PR14-04) through the end of the Nose Piece (#PR14-01).
Next, squeeze the operating handle Trigger (#PR14-25)
several times before inserting a rivet.
• Power tools cannot be used in potentially explosive
atmospheres unless especially designed for that purpose.
• Unexpected tool movement or breakage of inserted tool
may cause bodily injury.
• Power tools should be disconnected from their energy
source when changing or servicing any parts.
• Never put any body part, clothing, hair, etc. between the
tool and the work area as serious bodily injury can result.
• G
uard against the risk of being injured by whipping air hoses.
• Guard against unexpected tool movement or breakage of
the rivet may cause injury.
• Unstable postures may not allow counteracting of normal
or unexpected movement of the air tool.
