OPERATION

1. When items are to be riveted together, the hole diameter must be nominally larger than the outer diameter of the rivet. Ensure that the hole is perpendicular with the surface of the workpiece components.
2. Insert the rivet into the hole of the workpiece components.
3. Part the handles to prepare the action of the gun.
• This will enable the rivet stem to enter the rivet gun as far as it will go, with the handles fully extended.
4. Ensure the rivet gun is perpendicular to the workpiece and the flange of the rivet is pressed against it.
5. Squeeze the rivet gun handles together to expand the rivet.
6. If the rivet stem does not break off at the first stroke, part the handles and repeat step 5.
7. Part the handles again and the broken rivet stem should be ejected from the nozzle.

ADJUSTMENT

If the internal claws of the rivet gun fail to grip the stem of the rivet, the mechanism will need adjusting.
1. Loosen the locking sleeve and rotate the nozzle clockwise to tighten (anti-clockwise to loosen).
2. Part the handles to extend the riveter and to tighten the internal claws.
3. Re-tighten the locking nut.
