MP-4V Heavy Duty Riveter / 39048
Alcoa Fastening Systems
1925 N MacArthur Dr
Suite 200
Tracy, CA 95376
This newly designed heavy-duty air/hydraulic riveter is
ergonomically designed with the professional in mind. The light
weight 3.7 lbs. well balanced MP-4V includes a Vacuum system
and is designed to maximize a 1” stroke and 3,420 lbs. of pulling
force with a 3 jaw setup that gets the job done. The air supply can
be connected directly or you can use the supplied swivel air
connector with the attached hose for operator convenience. Each
tool is supplied with nosepieces to set 5/32”- 1/4” rivets in all
alloys. A 1/4" monobolt nosepiece is included in addition to
adjustment service wrenches, hydraulic fluid, fluid applicator,
spare jaws and an air off/on valve. The adjustable Vacuum
System control knob located on the side of the tool allows you to
control the force of the air needed to hold the rivet in place or you
may operate with the vacuum system turned off.
Recommended air pressure is 70-95 PSI.

1. Connect air supply then switch ON/OFF valve
to ON position
2. To turn on and adjust vacuum system rotate silver
knob on side of tool and turn it clockwise until
desired amount of vacuum is obtained to hold rivet
in place and eject spent mandrel into the collection
cup. If you don't want to use the vacuum system
rotate the silver knob counter-clockwise to shut it
off. The tool will still function but must be tilted
backwards to allow spent mandrel to fail into
collection cup.
ADDITION OF HYDRAULIC FLUID
1. Disconnect air supply to tool and switch ON/OFF valve to
OFF position.
2. Remove seal screw and seal (see Fig. 3)
3. Screw the priming pump of filled oil into the bleed screw
hole. Actuate the priming pump by pressing down and
releasing several times until resistance is felt. (Fig. 4)
4. Remove the priming pump and the excessive oil will flow
out. Wipe away and clean out the excessive oil and replace
the seal and screw.
