Precautions
1. Before beginning any operation, it is mandatory to read this manual of guidelines,
which guarantees the proper functioning and full performance of the product.
2. Become familiar with the application and limitations of the riveter, as well as

How to Change The Mandrel ?
1. Unscrew the nosepiece counterclockwise, either by hand or with the provided wrench
if it is too tight to do so. Always keep the matched mandrel and nosepiece sets together.
Sliding Sleeve
2. Using your thumbnail or a tool, press down to depress the inner hexagonal sleeve
that sits within the outer sleeve. This should expose the lower hex portion of the mandrel.
Then, unscrew the mandrel and remove it.
4
Before using the riveter, you need to check the information in the rivet nut chart and
the thickness of your workpiece to ensure that the riveting range of the rivet nut covers
the thickness of your workpiece. Choose the right mandrel for the rivet nut you are using.
Note: The M8 mandrel is already installed on the tool, so the small box of M8 is empty.
Warning: The thickness of the workpiece should be within the riveting range of the rivet nut,
otherwise it may lead to smaller mandrels snapping, stripping, or riveting failure.
5
3. Fully depress the inner hex sleeve and thread the selected mandrel into the tool
by hand until it reaches the bottom. The mandrel does not need to be torqued.
Release the inner hex sleeve and allow it to fully reengage the hex part of the mandrel.
If the mandrel and inner hex sleeve do not initially align, slightly rotate the mandrel
until the inner sleeve clicks up and reengages.
4. Thread the matching nosepiece into the outer sleeve by hand; torquing
the nose piece is optional.

Parameters for Recognizing Stroke Gauge
Fig1
Fig2
1. Initial State
The top of white line should be at 0mm when the handles are closed (Fig 1).
Open the handles, the top of white line is at 6mm( Fig 2), so the working stroke is 6mm,
the nut height will be decreased by 6mm after riveting.
2. Stroke Check

Before riveting any rivnut smaller than M8 or 5/6-18, you need to calculate the
working/compression stroke by using the chart and formula. Taking the M5 rivet
nut working on a 2 mm thick workpiece, for example, the calculation is as follows:
The working stroke = 13.1 mm (L) - 1.0 (k) - 8.0 mm (h) - 2.0 mm (e) = 2.1 mm
1. Open the handles and screw the rivet nut onto the mandrel clockwise
until it is completely on.
2. Pre-drill a hole in the workpiece, if needed, according to the size of
the rivet nut, and insert the rivet nut into the hole.
3. Close the handles to deform the rivet nut in the hole.
8
For smaller rivet nuts, please observe the gauge while closing the handles.
Stop applying more power on the handles when the decrease in the distance
on the gauge approaches the calculated working stroke. Slightly press the handles
within a 1mm working stroke until the rivet nut is secure in the hole.
For larger rivet nuts, it is not necessary to observe the working stroke in the gauge
during riveting. If the rivet nut is loose in the hole after the first compression,
open the handle, turn the knob clockwise to bring the riveter closer to the rivet nut,
and close the handles until the rivet nut is secure in the hole. Repeat as necessary
until the rivet nut is firmly in place.
Turn the knob counter-clockwise to unscrew the riveter mandrel from inside the rivet nut.
The rivet nut installation is complete if the rivet is secure and immovable in the hole.
It is possible to use the internal thread of the rivet nut to fix other sheets or objects into the hole.

1. Proper adjustment of the riveter is good for efficient and easy operation.
2. The adjustment of the riveter will vary, depending on the size and type of rivet nut being used
and the hole size.
3. Adjust the riveter by opening the handles outward as far as possible, loosening
the adjusting nut, and turning the outer sleeve outwards to increase the number of threads
on the mandrel protruding beyond the nosepiece for larger rivet nuts, and by turning
the outer sleeve inwards for smaller rivet nuts. Once the adjustment is set, tighten the adjusting nut.
4. Always ensure that the mandrel is threaded into all threads of the rivet nut to prevent
damage to the threads on the mandrel and/or the rivet nut.
5. If the handles are extended too far outward to provide enough leverage to pull the rivet nut,
turn the outer sleeve inwards to change the handle angle to provide the proper leverage.
