3.2. Attaching and Adjusting the Nosepiece
- Identify Nosepiece Rings: The rivet gun head features three knurled rings. The smallest ring is the removable nosepiece. The second ring is the clinch adjuster, and the third ring locks the clinch adjuster.
- Remove Current Nosepiece: Unscrew the currently installed nosepiece by hand.
- Install New Nosepiece: Screw the selected nosepiece firmly into the head of the rivet gun.
- Adjust Clinch (Rivet Grip):
- Loosen the third (locking) ring completely.
- Adjust the second (clinch adjuster) ring by turning it until the tool's jaws feel tight when gripping the rivet shank. This adjustment ensures the tool properly grips and pulls the rivet.
- Once the desired grip is achieved, tighten the third (locking) ring firmly to secure the clinch adjuster in place.

4. Instruccions de funcionament
Follow these steps to effectively use your Yato YT-36012 Pop Rivet Gun:
- Preparació de materials: Drill a hole through the materials to be joined. The hole diameter should match the rivet diameter.
- Inserir rivet: Place the rivet's body through the prepared hole.
- Load Rivet Gun: Insert the rivet's mandrel (the pin) into the nosepiece of the rivet gun until it is fully seated.
- Eina de posició: Place the nosepiece firmly against the surface of the material, ensuring the rivet head is flush.
- Eina d'accionament: Squeeze the handles of the rivet gun together with firm, steady pressure. You will feel resistance as the tool pulls the mandrel, causing the rivet body to expand and form a blind head on the backside of the materials. Continue squeezing until the mandrel snaps off.
- Eject Mandrel: After the mandrel snaps, release the handles. The broken mandrel will typically fall out of the back of the tool. If it remains, open the handles fully and shake the tool to eject it.
- Inspect Rivet: Verify that the rivet is securely set and the materials are firmly joined.
