Attention!
In order to avoid upsetting smaller or thin-wall type blind rivet nuts during the threa-
ding process, disconnect tool and increase the threaded mandrel protusion to a length
such that the rivet nut does not thread on flush against the nosepiece. Adjust setting
stroke (see paragraph 6.2)

Important:

• If the threaded mandrel (2) is not threaded out of the blind rivet nut completely, a short
quick touch of the stroke button (35) will induce threading-out procedure.
• If the threaded mandrel is stuck in the blind rivet nut, it may be loosened by means of the
enclosed hexagon wrench SW4 (see drawing 4).
