protection.
Be sure of adequate clearance for operator’s hands before
proceeding with fastener installation.
Do NOT attempt to install a pin without placing the fastener
and collar in the work piece (structure to be fastened).
Do NOT attempt to install a pin without a properly oriented
collar in place.
If these safety measures are not followed, the fastener could
eject with great velocity and cause severe personal injury.

ALL jaw teeth to engage with
pintail. If ALL teeth do not
engage properly, jaws will be
damaged.

Do NOT install a fastener without a
workpiece (structure to be fastened), a pin,
