4. AIR SUPPLY
4.1. Air Supply
RWARNING!Ensuretheairsupplyiscleananddoesnotexceed90psiwhileoperatingtheriveter.Toohighanairpressureand 
 uncleanairwillcauseexcessivewear,andmaybedangerous,causingdamageand/orpersonalinjury.
4.1.1. Recommendedhook-upprocedureisshowninFig.1.
4.1.2. Ensure the riveter air valve (or trigger) is not depressed before connecting to the air supply.

4.1.4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the riveter and invalidate your warranty.
4.1.5. Cleanairinletlterweekly.
4.1.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose diameter should
 be1/4”I.D.andttingsmusthavethesameinsidedimensions.
4.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.2. Couplings
4.2.1. Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the riveter. To overcome this, connect a leader hose
 SealeymodelnumberAH2RorAH2R/38-totheriveter.Aquickchangecouplingmaythenbeusedtoconnecttheleaderhoseto
 theairlinerecoilhose.Seegs.1&2.

WARNING! – Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.
This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
ThistoolissubjecttothevibrationtestingsectionoftheMachineryDirective2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
Measured vibration emission value (a): ...........0.5 m/s²
Uncertainty value (k):..........................0.54 m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a
specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: StatedVibrationEmissionvaluesaretype-testvaluesandareintendedtobetypical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
Syndrome.
Health surveillance.
Werecommendaprogrammeofhealthsurveillancetodetectearlysymptomsofvibrationinjurysothatmanagementprocedurescanbe
modified accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
Wearenotawareofanypersonalprotectiveequipment(PPE)thatprovidesprotectionagainstvibrationinjurythatmayresultfromthe
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry
and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use
and Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website
www.hse.gov.uk-Hand-ArmVibrationatWork.
