• Air hoses must be oil resistant, have an abrasion resistant exterior and be armoured where operating
conditions may result in hoses being damaged.
• All air hoses MUST have a minimum bore diameter of 6.4 millimetres.
• Check for air leaks. If damaged, hoses and couplings must be replaced by new items.
• If there is no fi lter on the pressure regulator, bleed the airline to clear it of accumulated dirt or water
before connecting air hose to the tool.

3.3 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

CAUTION - CORRECT SUPPLY PRESSURE IS IMPORTANT FOR PROPER FUNCTION OF THE INSTALLATION
TOOL. PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT MAY OCCUR WITHOUT CORRECT PRESSURES.
THE SUPPLY PRESSURE MUST NOT EXCEED THAT LISTED IN THE PLACING TOOL SPECIFICATION
Item numbers in bold refer to the components in fi gures 1 & 2 and the tables on page 9.
When the pneumatic hose is connected to the placing tool, the pull and return cycles of the tool are
controlled by depressing and releasing the trigger (6) located in the handle.
• Air supply is disconnected.
• Connect the appropriate nose equipment as described on page 8 & 10.
• Connect the pneumatic hose to the air on/off valve (7).
• Connect the pneumatic hose mains air supply.
• Switch on the mains supply to the tool by sliding the air on/off valve (7) to the up position.
• Air is now be supplied to the tool and the vacuum system is in operation.

4. OPERATION PROCEDURE

4.1 TOOL OPERATION (Ref. fi g. 1, 4, 5, 6)

Installing a blind rivet
• Ensure that the mandrel collector (3) is fi tted.
• Insert rivet mandrel into the nose piece (1a,b,c or d). The vacuum system will retain the rivet in the nose
piece.
• Position the tool.
• Ensure nose equipment is at right angle (90°) to the work piece.
• Pull and hold trigger (6) until the rivet is fully set in the application.
• When the rivet has been set completely, release the trigger (6). The tool will return to its initial position
automatically. The mandrel is automatically dropped into the mandrel collector (3) by the vacuum system.
• Mandrel collector must be emptied before it is half full.
CAUTION –DO NOT FORCE THE INSERTION OF A RIVET MANDREL OR RIVET BODY. THIS WILL CAUSE
DAMAGE TO THE TOOL AND/OR APPLICATION.

4.2 EMPTYING THE MANDREL COLLECTOR (Ref. fi g. 1)

CAUTION - DO NOT USE THE TOOL WHEN THE MANDREL COLLECTOR IS REMOVED
• The tool is fi tted with a quick connect/release mandrel collector (3).
• A 60° rotation removes or replaces the mandrel collector.
• Removing the mandrel collector (3) from the tool automatically turns OFF the vacuum rivet retention and
mandrel extraction system.
• Refi tting the mandrel collector turns the vacuum system ON.
