5. Подешавање

Before using the rivet gun, ensure the correct nosepiece is installed for your chosen rivet size.

5.1 Selecting and Installing Nosepieces

1. Identify the diameter of the rivet you intend to use (e.g., 2.4mm, 3.2mm, 4.0mm, 4.8mm).
2. Select the corresponding nosepiece from the storage on the handle.
3. Unscrew the currently installed nosepiece (if any) from the front of the rivet gun.
4. Screw the selected nosepiece firmly into place using the provided nosepiece wrench. Ensure it is tightened securely to prevent loosening during operation.

6. Упутство за употребу

Follow these steps for proper operation of your Libraton Rivet Gun:

1. Припремите материјале: Align the base metal and joint material precisely at the fastening position. Secure the materials to prevent shifting.
2. Бушите пилот рупу: Using an HSS drill bit of the correct diameter (matching your rivet size), drill a pilot hole at a right angle through both materials.
3. Уметните заковицу: Ensure the correct nosepiece is installed on the rivet gun. Insert the blind rivet into the prepared hole. Push the rivet firmly until its flange is flush against the material surface.
4. Operate Rivet Gun: Place the nosepiece of the rivet gun over the rivet's mandrel. Squeeze the handles of the rivet gun together firmly and steadily. Continue squeezing until you hear a distinct "pop" sound, indicating that the rivet has been compressed and the mandrel has broken off.
5. Remove Mandrel: After the rivet is set, release the handles. The broken mandrel (cut shaft) should fall out of the nosepiece. If it does not, refer to the Troubleshooting section.

7. Одржавање

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your rivet gun.

• Чишћење: After each use, wipe down the tool with a clean, dry cloth to remove any dust or debris.
• подмазивање: Periodically apply a small amount of light machine oil to the pivot points and jaws to ensure smooth operation.
• Nosepiece Inspection: Check nosepieces for wear or damage. Replace if necessary to ensure proper rivet setting.
• Складиштење: Store the rivet gun in a dry environment to prevent rust. Keep all nosepieces and the wrench together with the tool.

КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема

8.1 Mandrel (Cut Shaft) Does Not Eject

If the broken mandrel remains stuck inside the nosepiece after setting a rivet, this can occur if a rivet of a different size from the nosepiece was used, or due to debris.

• Check Nosepiece Size: Ensure the installed nosepiece matches the rivet diameter.
• Use Cut Shaft Removal Nozzle: For newer versions of the kit, a dedicated cut shaft removal nozzle is included. This nozzle can be screwed onto the front of the rivet gun. Insert the stuck mandrel into the nozzle and gently push to dislodge it.
• Ручно уклањање: If a removal nozzle is not available, carefully remove the nosepiece and use a thin, blunt object (like a small punch or the back of a drill bit) to push the mandrel out from the rear of the nosepiece. Always ensure the tool is not under tension and exercise caution.
