PRL650-6S 2. Out line The PRL650-6S series sre compact and light weight air-hydraulic rivet tools capable of setting POP rivets for φ4.0∼4.8mm. These tools are equipment with automatic vacuum Mandrel Collector. 1.Specification Select the model according to the rivet size and conditions of use.
PRL650-6S 4. Preparation for use (1) Make sure that Nosepiece that suits the rivets used are attached: If incompatible parts are attached, replace them with those specified to suit the rivets used (see Table 2-2 on P. 4). (See P.14 for Replacing Nosepiece.) (2) Attach the coupler (AN500-72) to R-Joint block of rivet tool, to supply compressed air.
PRL650-6S 5. Precautions for use (1) Air pressure used Use the rivet tool with an air pressure of 0.5-0.6 MPa. If the specified air pressure is exceeded, the tool could break, resulting in an accident or injury. If the air pressure is lower than that specified, it may not be possible to setting rivets.
