Changing Thread Sizes (See Fig. 3 )
How to change Part A (Mandrel) and Part B (Nosepiece Cone) to the
correct size thread needed for your Rivet-Nut.
Example: Setting up a1/4"-20 thread.
You will need the 1/4"-20 Mandrel Part A and 1/4"-20 Part B
(Nosepiece Cone ) (see parts list)
1. Using wrenches on Part B and Part C (Lock Nut) loosen Part B while
holding Part C in place.
2. When loose, manually screw off Part B.
3. To remove Part A with your fingers hold and pull back to rear of tool
Part M (Slide) and while holding Part M in place unscrew Part A and
remove mandrel from tool.
4. To assemble the new thread size Mandrel pull back part M and hold in
place while screwing on Part A (Mandrel) into the tool making sure it is
hand tight only. Then release Part M and push it forward by hand
towards front of tool. Part M will partially cover the hex nut head of
(Mandrel) locking the Mandrel in place in place.
5. Next screw Part B fully on( by hand) and then tighten using wrenches
Part C against Part B.
Note: BT-8 is shipped & setup for use with 6MM Rivet Nuts

2.7 Start-up
Before starting the riveting tool, read and observe the operating instructions
as well as safety information and keep in a safe place.
● Insert fully charged battery in correct position into the blind rivet nut setting
tool.
● Select nosepiece and threaded mandrel from Table 2.6 and screw on (M6
in working position).
The air inlets for the motor must not be obstructed; do not insert any objects
into them.
2.7.1 Setting the threaded mandrel length x (Fig. 2)
● Set the threaded mandrel length x to the blind rivet nut length by
turning the nosepiece B.
● Fully utilise the thread depth of closed blind rivet nuts (Fig. 2; 4).
● Secure setting of nosepiece B with lock nut C.
2.7.2 Adjusting the setting stroke y (Fig. 2)
● The setting stroke y depends on the size of the blind rivet nut
(M3-M10) and of the rivetable material z (Fig. 4).
Reference values for setting stroke y:
● The setting stroke y is adjusted by screwing the setting nut D in and out.
● Initially adjust the setting stroke y to the “min.” value and then set a blind
rivet nut.
● If the blind rivet nut does not form a distinct closing as shown in Fig. 4 ,
increase the setting stroke y in steps.
● Secure the setting nut D with lock nut E.
Note: Before setting Rivet Nut into an application check the
material thickness and hole size of the application.
Rivet-Nuts have specific hole sizes and material thicknesses (grip
range) specifications in order for them to set properly.
Loading Rivet-Nut On Tool
Stroke Adjustment
1. Using wrenches loosen Part D (Setting Nut) and Part E (Lock Nut)
from each other and continue turning Part E away from Part D to
allow you adjust Part D. Once Part D is adjusted lock it down using
part E.
2. Turn Part D towards the tool (tighten) to increase the stroke and
loosen Part D to decrease the stroke.
3. This procedure may be adjusted to get the Rivet Nut to pull up
tight and correctly form the blind side bulge (see Fig. 4)
1. Select your Rivet Nut and hold it in your hand with flange side
facing the tool.
2. While holding the Rivet Nut tight so it does not spin in your hand
slightly rest it against and hold it level against Part A Mandrel.
3. Press Trigger Part K and hold it until the tool stops then release
trigger. Do Not Press Trigger a Second Time
4. If the flange of the Rivet Nut is not up against part B then you
can manually turn on the Rivet Nut until it is against Part B.
5. Part A mandrel thread should be fully engaged with Rivet Nut
threads. If threads are not fully engaged go to stroke adjustment as
follows.
itself out from the set Rivet Nut

Each full turn of Part D = approximately .040 inch in stroke
It is suggested that you test your adjustments in a test plate
with the same hole size and material thickness before production
Note: To prevent failure remember that when choosing a
Rivet Nut size be aware that they have specific specifications for
hole size and grip range (material thickness) for the application
that you are setting them in.
Setting Rivet-Nut into Application
Holding the tool parallel to the application insert the Rivet Nut
into the hole and pull Trigger K and hold it until tool reverses

● Fully utilise the thread depth of closed blind rivet nuts (Fig. 2; 4).
● Secure setting of nosepiece B with lock nut C.
2.7.2 Adjusting the setting stroke y (Fig. 2)
● The setting stroke y depends on the size of the blind rivet nut
(M3-M10) and of the rivetable material z (Fig. 4).
Reference values for setting stroke y:
● The setting stroke y is adjusted by screwing the setting nut D in and out.
● Initially adjust the setting stroke y to the “min.” value and then set a blind
rivet nut.
● If the blind rivet nut does not form a distinct closing as shown in Fig. 4 ,
increase the setting stroke y in steps.
● Secure the setting nut D with lock nut E.
Caution!

Before starting the riveting tool, read and observe the operating instructions
as well as safety information and keep in a safe place.
● Insert fully charged battery in correct position into the blind rivet nut setting
tool.
● Select nosepiece and threaded mandrel from Table 2.6 and screw on (M6
in working position).
The air inlets for the motor must not be obstructed; do not insert any objects
into them.
2.7.1 Setting the threaded mandrel length x (Fig. 2)
● Set the threaded mandrel length x to the blind rivet nut length by
turning the nosepiece B.
● Fully utilise the thread depth of closed blind rivet nuts (Fig. 2; 4).
● Secure setting of nosepiece B with lock nut C.
2.7.2 Adjusting the setting stroke y (Fig. 2)
