Setup

1. Attach the Handle: Securely screw the practical handle onto the designated threaded port on the side of the rivet gun adapter. Ensure it is tightened firmly for stable operation.
2. Select Rivet Head: Choose the appropriate rivet head (2.4 / 3.2 / 4.0 / 4.8 mm) from the included wrench based on the diameter of the blind rivet you intend to use. Screw the selected rivet head onto the front of the adapter.
3. Insert into Drill/Screwdriver: Insert the 1/4" hex drive shaft of the rivet gun adapter into the chuck of your cordless screwdriver or drill. Tighten the chuck securely to prevent slippage during operation.
4. Prepare for Rivet Insertion: Before inserting a rivet, ensure the gripper jaws inside the adapter are fully open. This is typically achieved by running the drill in reverse (counter-clockwise) briefly until the jaws retract.

Operating Instructions

1. Insert Rivet: Place the blind rivet into the chosen rivet head on the adapter. The rivet should fit snugly.
2. Position Tool: Position the rivet and adapter into the pre-drilled hole in your workpiece. Ensure the rivet head is flush against the material.
3. Activate Drill: Set your drill to a moderate speed and forward (clockwise) rotation. Slowly press the drill trigger. The adapter will begin to pull the rivet mandrel.
4. Complete Riveting: Continue to operate the drill until the rivet expands and the mandrel snaps off. You will hear a distinct pop sound when the mandrel breaks.
5. Eject Mandrel: After the rivet is set, switch your drill to reverse (counter-clockwise) rotation. The broken mandrel will be ejected from the back of the adapter. If it does not eject immediately, gently tap the adapter or continue reverse rotation until it comes out.
6. Repeat: The tool is now ready for the next rivet.

• Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of light machine oil to the moving parts, especially the gripper jaws and the internal mechanism, to ensure smooth operation.
• Jaw Inspection: Regularly inspect the gripper jaws for wear or damage. Replace them with the included spare jaws if they appear worn to maintain optimal performance.
• Storage: Store the adapter and all its components in the provided storage case to protect them from damage and corrosion.
