• Always store the unused nozzles by screwing them back into the stem

collector of the riveter for safe keeping.

Screw your chosen nozzle into the tip of the rivet gun, finger tight.

OPERATION

1. When items are to be riveted

together, the hole diameter must

be nominally larger than the outer

diameter of the rivet. Ensure the

hole is perpendicular with the

surface of the workpiece

components.

2. Insert the rivet into the hole in the

workpiece.

3. Open the arms of the riveter as

wide as possible.

• This will enable you to insert the

rivet stem into the riveter as far as

it will go.

4. Ensure that the riveter is

perpendicular to the workpiece

and the flange of the rivet is

pressed against it.

5. Close the handles together to

expand the rivet.

6. If the rivet stem does not break at

the first stroke, open the handles

and repeat until the components

are squeezed tightly together and

the rivet stem breaks off.

7. The broken stem should be

ejected from the nozzle and be

caught in the collection tank.

8. Unscrew the collection tank and

dispose of the contents when full.

ADJUSTMENT

If the internal claws of the rivet gun

fail to grip the stem of the rivet, the

riveter will need adjusting.

1. Loosen the locking nut and rotate

the riveter shield clockwise to

tighten (anti-clockwise to loosen).

2. Open the handles to relax the

riveter and to tighten the internal

claws.

3. Re-tighten the locking nut.
