OPERATION
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, always
wear proper eye protection marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
Always remove battery pack before changing
or removing accessories.
Only use accessories
specically recommended for this tool. Others
may be hazardous.
Always hold tool securely and anticipate a sud-
den reaction.
Fuel Gauge
To determine the amount of charge left in the battery,
turn the tool ON. The Fuel Gauge will light up for 2-3
seconds. When less than 10% of charge is left, 1 light
on the fuel gauge will ash 4 times.
To signal the end of charge, 1 light on the fuel gauge
will ash 8 times and the tool will not run. Charge
the battery pack.
If the battery becomes too hot, the fuel gauge lights
will ash and the tool will not run. Allow the battery
to cool down.
Using the Rivet Tool
1. Prepare the workpiece. If necessary, drill a pilot
hole.
2. Place the blind rivet mandrel
into the nose piece.
3. Insert the rivet end into the
workpiece. Hold the tool
securely and pull and hold
the trigger until the rivet is
fully set and the motor stops.
Release the trigger. The tool
will reset.
NOTE: Releasing the trigger
before the rivet is fully set will
cause the tool to return to its
starting position.
4. Tip the tool back to clear the
mandrel. It will slide into the
mandrel box.
5. Empty the mandrel box after
setting 100-150 rivets, de-
pending on size.
ASSEMBLY
WARNING
Recharge only with the charger
specied for the battery. For spe-
cic charging instructions, read the operator’s
manual supplied with your charger and battery.
Removing/Inserting the Battery
To remove the battery, push in the release buttons
and pull the battery pack away from the tool.
WARNING
Always remove the battery pack
any time the tool is not in use.
To insert the battery, slide the pack into the body
of the tool. Make sure it latches securely into place.
WARNING
Only use accessories specically
recommended for this tool. Others
may be hazardous.
Always use mandrel box. Spent mandrels can be
ejected from the tool, causing injury.
Installing/Emptying Mandrel Box
Once the rivet is set, the mandrel collects in the box.
Empty the mandrel box often to avoid jamming the tool.
WARNING! Never use the tool without the mandrel
box installed. Loose mandrels could cause a hazard.
1. To install the mandrel box, line up the box with
the detents in the tool. Slide the box onto the tool,
and rotate to lock in place.
2. To empty the mandrel box, rotate the box and pull
away from the tool. Empty the box and reinstall
before use.
Installing the Nose Piece
The rivet tool comes with 4 nose pieces for 3/32",
1/8", 5/32", and 3/16" blind rivet sizes.
1. Remove battery pack.
2. Remove the nose housing from the tool (recom-
mended). NOTE: Due to the spring, it can be dif-
cult to install the nose piece into the nose housing
without rst removing the nose housing.
3. Remove the nose piece
from the nose housing.
For ease of use, the
wrench does not need to
be removed from the
tool for use. Insert the
nose housing into the
onboard wrench storage
and turn counterclock-
wise.
4. Select the correct nose piece for the rivet to be
installed. To remove the nose piece from the
on-tool storage, use your thumb to pull down on
needed nose piece.
5. Insert the new nose piece into the nose housing.
Use the onboard wrench to hand-tighten securely.
6. Screw the nose housing onto the tool and hand-
tighten securely.
