5 FORBIDDEN USE
- The machine must never be used to caulk or rivet anything but chains.
- Do not force the riveter while you're working.
- The machine must only be used as described in the Installation chapter.
- The machine cannot operate at voltages other than those indicated.
6 TRANSPORT
- The machine is supplied in two recyclable cardboard boxes. One contains the motor unit and the other contains the support structures. These
boxes must be handled carefully and should not be knocked during movement.
7 INSTALLATION
The machine is delivered in two separate packages: motor unit package and frame unit package.
The motor unit includes the electric motor directly fastened to the support, a kit of screws for fastening the motor unit to the frame unit and a kit
that contains head holders A and B together with the related rivet holder and a transparent protective shield.
The frame unit includes loose components:
- 1 chain support plane (photo 1 item 1)
- 1 right column (photo 1 item 2)
- 1 left column (photo 1 item 3)
- 2 supporting frames complete with adjustable feet (photo 1 item 4)
- 1 crossbar (photo 1 item 5)
- 1 pedal (photo 1 item 6)
- 1 rod complete with two forks and a kit containing screws and washers to assemble the frame (photo 1 item 7)
- 3 jaws (photo 1 item 8)
- 1 chain support guide (photo 1 item 9)
For a correct assembly of the frame, follow the instructions provided in sequence:
1 - fasten the two columns (right item2 – left item 3) to the two frames complete with feet (item 4), using 2+2 M8x16 screws and 4 grower washers
provided (photo 2). Follow the direction of assembly of the frames, as indicated in (photo 3)
2 - join the two columns complete with frames with the pedal-holder crossbar (part.5) using 2+2 M6x12 screws and 4 grower washers provided
(photo 4)
3 - fasten the pedal (part. 6) to the pedal-holder crossbar with the pin and cotter pin provided (photo 5)
4 - install the motor unit on the frame, joining the two columns and fasten the assembly with 4 M8x14 screws and 4 grower washers provided
(photos 6 and 6/A)
5 - make the chain support plane slide under the head-holder shaft (photo 7), position it properly on the two columns and fasten it using 2 M5x16
countersunk-head screws and 2 M5 nuts provided (photo 8)
6 - take the three chain stop jaws (item 8) provided, overlap them and, with 2 M6x25 screws, fasten them onto the chain support plane, making
sure to turn the part discharged from the motor support side (photos 9 and 9/A)
7 - take the chain support guide (item 9) and rest it on the plane, checking that the rayed slot is facing the motor support. Make the guide slots
match with the two holes in the plane below, fit from the top 2 button-headed screws and M5x20 square bolt and fasten the assembly with
two knobs provided, screwing them from the bottom (photos 10 and 10/A)
8 - fasten the fork complete with rod (part. 7) to the pedal with the pin and copper pin provided (photo 11), making sure that you are fastening
the side where the fork and rod have no nut.
9 - release the spring from the motor (photo 12), so as to facilitate fastening of the upper fork to the two flanges, using the pin and copper pin
provided (photo 13)
10 - couple the spring to the motor again, using the screw installed on the motor casing (photo 14)
8 HEAD HOLDER AND RIVET HOLDER ASSEMBLY
The machine is supplied with: disassembled head holder, rivet holder and protective shield.
The motor package includes a head and a rivet holder (type A) to be used for chains (see fig. 1) and a head and a rivet holder (type B) to be
used for chains (see fig. 2).
To assemble the three components mentioned above, follow the instructions provided below:
1 - choose the head and rivet holder according to the type of chain to be riveted
2 - manually screw the heads on the shaft, up to the end of its stroke (photo 15)
3 - take an Allen wrench No. 14 and an Allen wrench No. 23
4 - slightly lower the head with the pedal, grasp the Allen wrench No. 14 with your left hand and lock the head holder shaft (photo 16)
5 - grasp the Allen wrench No. 23 with your right hand, and tighten the assembly working on the head holder's hexagon (photo 17)
6 - choose the rivet holder corresponding to the installed head and fit it into its seat (photo 18). See the relevant table.
7 - take the transparent protective shield provided and remove the two protective films (photo 19)
8 - take a cross-tip screwdriver suitable for fastening screws
9 - fasten the protective shield to the support in the three points indicated in (photo 20), using the three self-tapping screws provided.
CAUTION: the transparent shield is a protective device for both your eyes and your hands. It's forbidden to work on the machine without a shield,
because an important safety device would not be available. In this case, the Manufacturer cannot be held liable for any accident caused by the
absence of the shield.
NOTE: the rivet holder positions itself freely in its seat, and can be replaced without removing the protective shield and the head.
Never use the machine with head and rivet holder of different type.
9 PRELIMINARY ADJUSTMENTS (WARNING: all adjustments must be made with the power cable unplugged)
1 - adjust the four feet of the structure, so that the machine is stable and does not rock during operation (photo 21)
2 - after making sure that the electrical system conforms to applicable standards. In particular, it must feature an overload/short circuit cutout, and
the mains voltage must be the voltage indicated on the machine's data plate, so that the power cable can be plugged in the system socket.
The rod unit, with adjustable forks, has been designed to adjust the distance between pedal and ground level and the distance between head
and rivet holder. The rod unit is supplied with the two forks adjusted in such a way that the distance between head and rivet holder is maximum
and the distance between pedal and ground level is minimum, from 3 to 4 cm (1"1/4 – 1"1/2). Any type of chain can be riveted in this position.
If the distance between head and rivet holder seems excessive (e.g. to rivet very small chains, of the 91VS type), this distance can be adjusted as follows:
3 - from the right side of the machine, use an Allen wrench No. 13 to loosen the nut under the upper fork (photo 22)
4 - grasp the rod with both hands and turn it anticlockwise (photo 23), so as to reduce the distance between head and rivet holder
5 - once the correct position has been found, tighten the nut against the fork with an Allen wrench No. 13
