I. GENERAL SAFETY RULES:

1. A half hour long hands-on training session with quali-

equipment.

2. Howmet  equipment  must  be  maintained  in  a  safe 

working condition at all times. Tools and hoses should 

be  inspected  at  the  beginning  of  each  shift/day  for 

damage or wear. Any repair should be done by a qual-

3. For  multiple  hazards,  read  and understand  the safe-

ty  instructions  before  installing,  operating,  repairing, 

maintaining, changing accessories on, or working near 

the assembly power tool. Failure to do so can result in 

serious bodily injury.

-

just or use the assembly power tool.

5. Do not modify this assembly power tool. This can re-

operator risk.

6. Do not discard safety instructions; give to operator.

7. Do not use assembly power tool if it is damaged.

8. Tools shall be inspected periodically to verify all ratings 

and markings required, and listed in the manual, are 

legibly  marked  on  the  tool.  The  employer/operator 

shall contact the manufacturer to obtain replacement 

marking  labels  when  necessary.  Refer  to  assembly 

drawing and parts list for replacement.

9. Tool is only to be used as stated in this manual. Any 

other use is prohibited.

manufacturer or your Howmet representative.

11.Only genuine Howmet parts shall be used for replace-

ments or spares. Use of any other parts can result in 

tooling damage or personal injury.

13.Never install a fastener in free air. Personal injury from 

fastener ejecting may occur.

14.Where applicable, always clear spent pintail out of nose 

assembly before installing the next fastener.

15.Check clearance between trigger and work piece to en-

sure there is no pinch point when tool is activated. Re-

mote triggers are available for hydraulic tooling if pinch 

point is unavoidable.

16.Do not abuse tool by dropping or using it as a hammer. 

Never use hydraulic or air lines as a handle or to bend 

or pry the tool. Reasonable care of installation tools by 

operators is an important factor in maintaining tool ef-

dent which may cause severe personal injury.

17.Never place hands between nose assembly and work 

piece. Keep hands clear from front of tool.

18.Tools with ejector rods should never be cycled with out 

nose assembly installed.

19.When two piece lock bolts are being used always make 

sure the collar orientation is correct. See fastener data 

sheet for correct positioning.

II.  PROJECTILE HAZARDS:

II.  PROJECTILE HAZARDS:

1. Risk  of  whipping  compressed  air  hose  if  tool  is 

pneudraulic or pneumatic.

2. Disconnect  the  assembly  power  tool  from  energy 

source when changing inserted tools or accessories.

3. Be aware that failure of the workpiece, accessories, or 

the inserted tool itself can generate high velocity pro-

jectiles.

4. Always wear impact resistant eye protection during tool 

operation. The grade of protection required should be 

assessed for each use.

5. The risk of others should also be assessed at this time.

7. Check that  the  means  of  protection  from  ejection  of 

fastener or pintail is in place and operative.

8. There  is  possibility  of  forcible  ejection  of  pintails  or 

spent mandrels from front of tool.

III. OPERATING HAZARDS:

1. Use of tool can expose the operator’s hands to hazards 

Wear suitable gloves to protect hands.

2. Operators and maintenance personnel shall be phys-

ically able to handle the bulk, weight & power of the 

tool.

3. Hold the tool correctly and be ready to counteract nor-

mal or sudden movements with both hands available.

4. Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing.

5. Release trigger or stop start device in case of interrup-

tion of energy supply.

manufacturer.

7. Avoid unsuitable postures, as it is likely for these not 

to  allow counteracting of  normal or  unexpected tool 

movement.

-

9. Beware of the risk of crushing or pinching if nose equip-

IV. REPETITIVE MOTION HAZARDS:

1. When  using  assembly  power  tool,  the  operator  can 

experience discomfort in the hands, arms, shoulders, 

neck or other parts of the body.

2. The  operator  should  adopt  a  comfortable  posture, 

balanced postures.

3. The operator should change posture during extended 

tasks to help avoid discomfort and fatigue.

4. If  the  operator  experiences  symptoms  such  as  per-

sistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, 

these warnings  should  not  be ignored.  The operator 

professional.

V. ACCESSORIES HAZARDS:

1. Disconnect tool  from  energy supply  before  changing 

inserted tool or accessory.

2. Use only sizes and types of accessories and consum-

ables that are recommended. Do not use other types
