Operating Instructions:
1.
Operators should familiarize themselves with the correct setting procedures of the rivet set to ensure proper operation of the
tool and correct installation of the rivet. See the information sheet for correct settings.
2.
Select the correct rivet set per the following:
a. Rivet type
b. Rivet diameter
c. Thickness of material to be riveted
Properly calculate to required rivet set per application. See Alligator Jaw and "C" Yoke nomenclature sheet.
3.
Refer to information sheet on selecting rivet sets for compression riveters to determine correct length of rivet set required.
**Note that this type of tool reaches maximum power near the end of the stroke and the rivet will not be properly set if tool does
not reach full stroke.
4.
Always disconnect tool from air supply when changing or adjusting rivet set.
5.
Make trial installations in test material to assure proper rivet set adjustment.
6.
To activate tool, depress throttle lever by pushing lever forward and down. The forward motion is required to clear the safety
throttle valve before the lever can be depressed. Release lever.
7.
Do not use tool for anything other than its intended purpose.
Principle of Operation:
Air powered compression riveters deliver a squeezing action that drives the rivet by "flowing" the rivet metal with compressed
forces. Squeezing action is obtained by coupling an air cylinder and piston to a wedge or cam thus multiplying the original force to
extreme ratios. High compressive forces are obtained from a relatively compact unit having small diameter cylinders and using
very little compressed air.
