Operating the riveting tool
Setting the blind rivet
What you must take care of
Attention
Material damage! Always set the riveting tool at the correct
angle (90°) with the surface of the work-piece to be riveted.
A slanted setting will lead to defective riveting.
Note
For the size of the hole (d1) and of the clamping grip (K), refer
to the information given by the rivet manufacturer
• Connect compressed air (6 bar).
• Twist the knurled nut (12) until you can hear the air escape from the air
outlet hole (6.1).
• Feed the blind rivet (a) into the nose piece (1).
The blind rivet is sucked and held in the nose piece. Blind rivet must
tightly fit the nose piece.
Note
You must adjust the knurled nut (12) so far that the mandrel will
be sucked off in the collector (6) after riveting
• Straighten the trigger (13) upto the stop point and hold it there.
The rivet body is upset and the blind rivet is thus set.
• Release trigger (13).
After releasing the trigger, the spent mandrel is automatically sucked into
the spent mandrel collector (6).
