The manufacturer equipped the tool with a nose‐piece /fig.1 – pos.1/ for a rivet Ø 6.4.Riveting with blind
rivets of different diameters (further on referred to as BR) requiresuse ofappropriatenose‐piecesthatare

3.1.Dailymaintenance
Before starting work, apply severaldropsoflubricatingoil(werecommendhydraulicoilHYSPINAWHM32
CASTROL) into the air inlet of the tool, on condition there is no lubricating device connected in the air
distribution.
