ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS

1. Proper adjustment of the riveter is necessary for efficient and easy
operation.
2. The adjustment of the riveter will vary, depending on the size and
type of rivet nut being used and the hole size.
3. Adjust the riveter by opening the handles outward as far as
possible loosening the #4 adjusting nut and turning the #3 outer
sleeve clockwise to increase the number of threads on the mandrel
protruding beyond the nosepiece for larger rivet nuts, and by
turning the #3 outer sleeve counterclockwise for smaller rivet nuts.
Once adjustment is set, tighten the #4 adjusting nut by hand. Fine
adjustment can be made by turning the rivet nut on the mandrel to
position the rivet nut closer or further away from the nosepiece, as
long as the mandrel is threaded all the way through the rivet nut.
4. Always ensure that the mandrel is threaded into all threads of the
rivet nut to prevent damage to the threads on the mandrel and/or
the rivet nut.
5. If the handles are extended too far outward to provide enough
leverage to pull the handles inward to set the rivet nut, turn the #3
outer sleeve clockwise or turn the rivet nut counterclockwise
slightly to change the handle angle to provide the proper leverage.
