balance enables better control in unexpected situations.

4. Support the workpiece or clamp it to a stable platform. Holding the

workpiece by hand or against your body may lead to personal injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained

from repeated use) replace strict adherence to the tool safety

rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer

serious personal injury.

1. Use the correct tool for the job. This tool was designed for a

specific function. Do not modify or alter this tool or use it for an

unintended purpose.

2. Do not use the tool if any parts are damage broken or misplaced.

Repair or replace the parts.

3. Never point the tool towards yourself. It could inflict an injury.

4. Never use the riveter without the safety cap (E) in place. The

ejected pin may cause an injury to yourself or a bystander.

AIR TOOL PRECAUTIONS

1. Use only clean and dry compressed air as a power source.

Contaminated or moist air will gradually damage the tool.

2. Install an in-line shutoff valve or regulator to allow immediate

control over the air supply in an emergency, even if a hose is

ruptured.

3. Discontinue tool use if it does not work properly or air is leaking.

Tag or mark the tool as ‘defective’ or ‘out of service’ until repaired.

4. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air tools

and accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated to

never exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool (see

Specifications). Exceeding the maximum PSI rating can create a

bursting hazard, causing injury and property damage.

5. Never use oxygen, combustible gas or any other bottled gas as a

power source. Any power source other than an air compressor

could cause an explosion and serious personal injury.

6. Turn OFF the valve and discharge any remaining air pressure after

each use or before adjusting the tool.

7. Do not leave the air tool unattended with its compressed air supply

on. Turn off the compressed air supply and bleed the air tool of any

remaining compressed air before leaving the air tool unattended.

8. Serious injury may occur from loose debris being propelled at high

speeds from the compressed air stream. Always wear OSHA

approved safety glasses to protect the eyes during operation of the air

compressor.

9. Always turn off the air compressor and drain tank pressure

completely before attempting maintenance or attaching air tools.

Release pressure slowly from the system.

10. Serious injury or death may occur from inhaling compressed air.

The air stream may contain carbon monoxide, toxic vapors or solid

particles. Never inhale compressed air directly from the pump or air

tool.

POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS

1. Do not use any power tool with a malfunctioning power switch or

control. A power tool that fails to respond to the controls is dangerous

and can cause an injury. A qualified technician must repair and verify

the power tool is operating correctly, before it can be used.

2. Disconnect the power source before installing or servicing the tool.

3. Keep hands and fingers away from the work area. Any part of body

contacting the tool’s working parts could cause an injury.

Letter references in parenthesis (A) refer to the included Identification

Key. Dashed numbers in parenthesis (Fig. 1-1) refer to a specific point

in an illustration or image.

INSTALL AIR CONNECTOR

1. The riveter’s air inlet has a factory installed male coupler. Connect

the air hose to the coupler.

2. Run the compressor at a low volume and check the connection for

air leaks. Do not use the tool until all air leaks are repaired or the

faulty component is replaced.

IMPORTANT! Vibration may cause failure if a quick coupler is

connected directly to the air tool. To overcome this, connect a

leader hose to the tool. A quick coupler may then be used to

connect the leader hose to the air line hose.

FILL THE HYDRAULIC OIL CYLINDER

Check and fill the riveter’s oil cylinder (#46) with hydraulic oil before

each use.

1. Disconnect the air hose from the riveter.

3. Fit the wrench’s center hex over the nosepiece and twist clockwise

(view from front) to lock it in place. Remove the wrench.

RIVET SUCTION ADJUSTMENT

The air riveter has a feature that sucks a rivet into the nosepiece for

quicker loading. An o-ring seals the airflow opening to prevent airflow.

Turning the rivet suction knob (D) allows suction to form at the

nosepiece.

1. Remove the safety cap (E).

2. Turn the rivet suction knob counterclockwise half way round to start

the airflow.

3. Reset the safety cap.

4. An audible hiss can be heard from the nosepiece.

5. Place the nosepiece next to the rivet pin to suck the rivet into the

OPERATION

WARNING! Always fit the safety cap to the rear of the air riveter

before use to prevent a penetrating injury from an ejected rivet

mandrel.

CAUTION! Keep fingers away from the trigger (F)while inserting

the rivet into the air riveter. Accidental activation may cause a

cut or pinching injury.

One or more holes of the same diameter as the rivet must be drilled

into the workpiece before installing the rivets.

1. Check the hydraulic oil level before each use (See Adding

Hydraulic Oil).

2. Select the correct nosepiece based on the rivet diameter and install

per Nosepieces section.

3. Attached the air riveter to the air source and start the compressor.

4. Push the rivet mandrel (stem) through the nosepiece until the rivet

head touches the nosepiece.

5. Insert the mandrel head and rivet pin into the pre-drilled hole. Push

the nosepiece against the workpiece.

6. Squeeze the trigger. The mandrel head will compress the rivet pin

while the mandrel is pulled through the air riveter. The force will snap

the mandrel at the rivet head and eject the scrap mandrel into the

safety cap.

7. Repeat Steps 4 to 6 until all rivets are installed.

8. Shut the compressor down and discharge all air from the system

before changing the nosepiece for a different diameter rivet.

9. Empty the safety cap when necessary. Make sure a rivet is not

inserted into the nosepiece when emptying the cap as an ejected

mandrel may cause a penetrating injury.

AIR TOOL LUBRICATION

NOTICE! Only use air tool oil to lubricate the tool. Other

lubricants are not suitable and will damage the tool or cause a

malfunction during use.

NOTICE! Never use a penetrating oil to lubricate an air tool.

Penetrating oil acts as a solvent that will dissolve the tool’s

grease packing and may damage the o-rings, causing the tool to

seize or malfunction.

1. All air tools have an internal coating of grease to prevent corrosion

during shipping and storage. Remove this grease by adding a

generous amount of air tool oil in the air inlet and then run the tool

under no load until the exhaust is clear.

2. Manually add a drop or two of air tool oil into the tool’s male

connector before each use and after every hour of continuous use.

The tool will not work properly without lubrication and parts will

wear prematurely.

3. Avoid adding too much air tool oil as this can cause premature

power loss and eventual tool failure. A qualified technician will need

to take the tool apart and clean out the excess oil.

V1.0 1/4 in. Air Riveter 8843740

Visit www.princessauto.com for more information 13

4. Apply a generous amount of air tool oil to the tool before storing it

for an extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.). Run the

tool for approximately 30 seconds to ensure the oil is evenly

distributed throughout the tool. Store it in a clean and dry location.

DISPOSAL

Recycle a tool damaged beyond repair at the appropriate facility.

Contact your local municipality for a list of disposal facilities or by-laws

for electronic devices, batteries, oil or other toxic liquids.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT pollute the environment by allowing

uncontrolled discharge of waste oil.

DISPOSAL OF HYDRAULIC FLUID

Do not drain hydraulic oil into the sewer system or dispose in an uncontrolled

location. Hydraulic fluid may take up to a year to breakdown in the

environment and the ingredients may still be toxic. Contact your local

municipality for proper disposal instructions or locations.
