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 riveta-
ble material z (Fig. 4).
Reference values for setting stroke y:
Thread size
M3
M4
M5
M6
M8
M10
•
The setting stroke y is adjusted by screwing the setting nut D in and out.
Important:
•
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.

2.8.1 Screwing on a blind rivet nut
•
Ensuring it is straight, set the blind rivet nut against the threaded mandrel A.
•
Keep switch K pressed until the tool stops; then release.
•
Hold the blind rivet nut during the entire screwing operation.
•
Repeat the procedure if the blind rivet nut does not rest against the nosepiece B after the
screw-on operation. Hold the blind rivet nut and briefly press the switch K to start the
screw-on operation. Now repeat the screw-on operation!
