MULTI RIVETER FOR SCREWDRIVER :
RP150 MULTI™
Original instructions
Read the user's manual carefully before use.
This riveter is equipped with our Multi™ nozzle, allowing you to
set Ø3,2 mm - Ø4 mm - Ø4,8 mm rivets with an unique nozzle.
I. Driving tool requirements
1. The tool must be equipped with adjustable torque setting
Battery-powered drill or screwdriver that allows you to
choose between several torque positions. The torque is set
by rotating the torque adjustment collar, behind the chuck (Figure
2.F). The higher the torque is, the more force the screwdriver has.
Note: In some cases, the value in Nm is replaced by setting num-
bers (e.g. 1 to 5) where 1 is the minimum torque value and 5 the
maximum.
2. Minimum battery power required with cordless driving tool:
• For aluminium, steel and coppered rivets : 12V
• For stainless steel rivets : 14.4V
3. Driver mode (MUST NOT be in drill mode nor impact mode)
(Figure 2.G)
4. Always start with lowest speed (RPM)
To do so, set the button with 2 settings to position 1 (when applica-
ble) which is the slowest speed (Figure 2.H). Then, smoothly pull the
trigger and gradually increase until it works well.

communication on the rivet packaging.
3. The work piece MUST BE secured to avoid possible injury. Unse-
cured objects may rotate with the driving tool.
IV. Operating instructions
1. Ensure that everything is WELL TIGHTENED before use and be
careful that this remains as it is BY CHECKING REGULARLY.
2. You MUST HOLD the riveter fi rmly by the grip areas with thick
gloves when using it. The riveter should not rotate.
3. Operate your driving tool BACKWARD (anti-clockwise) until an
audible sound comes from the riveter. Confi rm from the inspection
hole on the front tube that the plunger tube inside is at its maximum
forward position (Figure 3).
4. Insert the rivet mandrel into the nosepiece hole and make sure there
is no space between the nosepiece and the rivet fl ange
(Figure 4).
5. Lightly pull the trigger in FORWARD (clockwise) direction to have
the mandrel slightly gripped by the riveter, to prevent it from falling
out (Figure 5).
