Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing 
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving 
parts. Air vents on the tool often cover moving parts and should be avoided. 

 

Wear the proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSIZ87.1 compliant safety 
goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use a dust mask in 
dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection systems, 
and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the work area. 

 

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

 

Secure the work with clamps or a vise instead of your hand when practical. This safety precaution 
allows for proper tool operation using both hands. 

 

CAUTION

 

RIVET SPINNER AND CHAIN BREAKER USE AND CARE 

 

Do not force the rivet spinner and chain breaker. Products are safer and do a better job when 
used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct product for 
the job. 

 

Do not modify the rivet spinner and chain breaker in any way. Unauthorized modification may 
impair the function and/or safety and could affect the life of the equipment. 

 

Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the rivet spinner and chain 
breaker will operate properly and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts 
immediately. Never operate the product with a damaged part. 

 

Store the rivet spinner and chain breaker when it is not in use. Store it in a dry, secure place out of 
the reach of children. Inspect the tool for good working condition prior to storage and before re-
use. 

 

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with your rivet spinner 
and chain breaker. Accessories that may be suitable for one product may create a risk of injury 
when used with another tool. Never use an accessory that has a lower operating speed or 
operating pressure than the tool itself. 

 

Keep guards in place and in working order. Never operate the rivet spinner and chain breaker 
without the guards in place.
