Setting a blind rivet (see figures A1–A3)
– Prepare the workpieces to be connected. If no holes are
yet available, pre-drill the workpieces.
– Select a suitable nosepiece (1). Screw the nosepiece
onto the cover sleeve (2) and tighten it with the
wrench (9).
– Use the AUTO (18) button to select the required working
mode (see "Selecting the working mode", page 19).
– Insert the rivet mandrel of the blind rivet (20) into the
nosepiece (1).
– Hold the power tool tightly and push the blind rivet into
the pilot hole.
– Depending on the working mode, press the on/off switch
(12) and wait until the rivet mandrel has broken off.
– Tilt the power tool backwards so that the rivet mandrel
can fall into the mandrel container (5).
Note: After setting the blind rivet, ensure that the broken-off
rivet mandrel has fallen into the mandrel container before
setting the next blind rivet.
Changing the Nosepiece (see figure B)
The nosepiece magazine (4) contains nosepieces of three
different sizes, enabling the user to exchange nosepieces
quickly.
– Use the wrench (9) to unscrew the nosepiece (1) from
the cover sleeve (2).
– Screw the new nosepiece on and tighten it with the
wrench (9).
Empty the mandrel container (see figure C)
Always empty the mandrel container (5) for broken-off rivet
mandrels before it is completely full in order to prevent
blockages.
– Unscrew the mandrel container (5) by turning it anti-
clockwise.
– Empty the mandrel container (5) into a suitable recycling
or waste bin.
– Screw the mandrel container (5) back onto the power
tool by turning it clockwise.
User interface (see figure D)
The user interface (11) is used to select the working mode
and to indicate the status of the power tool.
