Flexco PSRD-1, Operating Manual And User Manual

PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE TOOL

1.  

WEAR SAFETY GLASSES OR GOGGLES

Danger to the eyes always exists resulting from tool impact and air discharge.
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper eye protection is worn. Follow the most current
guidelines published by MSHA/OSHA for eye protection.

The employer is responsible to enforce the use of eye protection equipment by the tool operator and all
other personnel in the work area.

Note:

Non-side shielded safety glasses and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.

2.  

HEARING PROTECTION MAY BE REQUIRED IN SOME ENVIRONMENTS

If you are using the Power Set

™

Rivet Driver intermittently or for an extended period of time, you may

need to wear hearing protection. The

decibel rating on the Power Set Driver is 

92 dBA

(weighted single

event emission sound pressure level at workstation)

. 

The employer should check guidelines to assure compliance to MSHA or OSHA requirements on
required hearing protection.

3.  

DO NOT USE ANY POWER SOURCE EXCEPT AN AIR COMPRESSOR

The tool is designed to operate on compressed air. Do not operate the tool on any other high-pressure gas
or combustible gases (e.g., oxygen, acetylene, etc.) since there is the danger of an explosion. 

4.  

OPERATE WITHIN THE PROPER AIR PRESSURE RANGE

The Power Set Rivet Driver is designed to operate within an air pressure range of 60 to 120 PSI (4-8 bar).

WARNING:

Never operate the Power Set Model PSRD-1 air control assembly over 120 PSI (8 bar). The

Power Set regulator pressure relief safety value will activate. Always use the Power Set Rivet Driver with the
air control assembly (regulator, filter, oiler) supplied in your Power Set Kit.

The Power Set

™

Rivet Driver, Power Set Rapid Loader

™

collated rivets strips with washers, and the SR

™ 

Family of Rivet

Hinged Fasteners have been designed to work together as a system. 

Note:

To insure proper Power Set Rivet Driver usage and prevent tool damage, use this tool only with Flexco SR

Fasteners and use only the Power Set Rapid Loader

™

collated rivet strips with washers.  

The Power Set Rapid Loader collated rivet strips with washers have been developed to maintain alignment of the
rivet during installation. Using any other types of rivet, including those manufactured by Flexco will not yield
satisfactory results. Damage to your Power Set Rivet Driver resulting from the use of products other than Flexco
SR Belt Fasteners and Power Set Rapid Loader collated rivet strips with washers will void your tool warranty. 

More importantly, using non Flexco products with your Power Set Rivet Driver could result in unsafe tool
operation resulting in either belt damage, or possible injury to the tool operator and others in the vicinity.
