Ensure the air hose has an inline oiler for proper lubrication of the tool's internal components. The recommended operating pressure is typically between 70-90 PSI (pounds per square inch), but always refer to the specifications for precise values.
- Nosepiece Installation:
- Disconnect the air supply before changing nosepieces.
- Select the appropriate nosepiece for the rivet size you intend to use. The tool includes nosepieces for 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", and 1/4" rivets.
- Unscrew the current nosepiece (if any) from the tool's head.
- Screw the desired nosepiece firmly into place. Do not overtighten.
