10. Proper Use
To ensure that all the corresponding
safety measures are observed and that
the riveting tool will work properly, the
following is required:
— The system has to be used in compli-
ance with the tool’s technical data and
specifications concerning the use, as
-
sembly, connection, environment and
work conditions. These conditions are
stipulated in the documents related to
the order, user information (tags etc.)
and in the documentation delivered
with the system, which includes the
operating instructions, as well as the
maintenance and inspection instruc-
tions in this manual.
— The users have to act in compliance
with local and system-specific condi
-
tions and pay corresponding attention
to the operating hazards and specifi
-
cations.
— All measures required for the main-
tenance of the tool, e.g. transport and
storage, as well as the requirements
for maintenance and regular inspec-
tion must be observed.
— Use only a safety quick coupler for
permanent connection to the com-
pressed air sources
— The mandrel collector must always
be emptied as soon as it exceeds half
load capacity
— Always set the riveting tool at the right
angle (90°) to the assembly surface
Compressed air supply
— For correct operation of the device,
it is necessary to observe the range
of inlet air pressure between the
minimum and maximum permissible
value of 6 – 7 bar. If necessary an
appropriate pressure reduction valve
has to be used. In case of non-com-
pliance, personal injury or damage to
the device may occur.
— The pressure regulator must be equip-
ped with a filter unit for separating dirt
and condensation from the air supply.
In case the pressure regulator with a
filter unit will not be used, it must be
ensured that the compressed air cannot
contain dirt and condensation.
— The length between the air supply
pressure regulator and the tool must
not exceed 3m.
— Supply line must be resistant to oil,
liquids and operating conditions
— Air hoses must have a 6 mm minimum
inner diameter.
— Maximum force depend on compliance
of the inlet pressure
