    5. Precautions on use The following precautions must be observed to ensure that the performance and service life of this tool are maintained. (1) Use the correct compressed air pressure Use compressed air at a pressure in the range 0.5~0.6 MPa . WARNING! If the compressed air pressure used exceeds the range above, this tool will break down and accident or injury could result.
  • Page 12 (4) Adjustment of each part Adjust each part before fastening POP Nuts. ※Refer to section six (p.11) for detail of method. Improper adjustment may cause damage of the tool or trouble and injury for shot of damaged part. (5) Hydraulic oil Use the designated hydraulic oil.
  • Page 13: 6.Adjustment Of Each Part

    6. Adjustment of each part Before fastening Pop Nuts, adjust each part by following procedure. 6-1. Mandrel and nosepiece replacement and mandrel protrusion length adjustment Use the designated parts to match the Pop Nut you will be using. (See p.5 table 2-2) Replace any parts that become worn or damaged.
  • Page 14 (Ⅱ) Nose piece replacement, adjustment of the mandrel protrusion length ≪Procedure≫ (1) Detach the coupler to stop the supply of compressed air. (2) Use a 30mm and a 26mm spanner to loosen the lock nut and remove the nosepiece and the lock nut from the nose housing. (See Figure 6-3) (3) Screw the lock nut to the designated nosepiece, and screw it to the nose housing until it stops.
  • Page 15 Warning! Inproper adjustment may cause damage the tool and trouble or injury by shot of broken parts as well as decrease in the tool performance. (2) Rough adjustment of stroke (scale units: 1mm) ① Use the hexagonal 1.5mm wrench (provided) to loosen the lock screw on the control nut.
  • Page 16 (3) Fine adjustment of stroke ①Fasten a pop nut without placing it into any base material and use calipers etc. to measure the caulk stroke ‘m’. (See Figure 6-7) ②Loosen the lock screw and turn the control knob to tune in exactly by the calculated discrepancy in the caulk stroke.

    7. How to use the PNT1000 WARNING ●Read “ Safety Precautions” (See P.1, 2) thoroughly before you use this tool and be sure to observe the instructions. ●Before you start fastening POP Nuts with this tool, be sure to adjust each part according to the instructions.
  • Page 19 (2) Fastening and detachment Push the POP Nut perpendicularly into the hole in the base material and pull the trigger (Figure 7-2). Keep pulling the trigger throughout fastening and detachment. Otherwise, detachment cannot be completed. The POP Nut is fastened and the tool automatically switches to reverse rotation to detach from the POP Nut (Figure 7-3).
  • Page 20 (3) To stop the reverse rotation of mandrel. Release the trigger to stop the mandrel rotation (Figure 7-4). Trigger Release Figure 7-4 (4) Steps for when the POP Nut is not detached correctly (a) If the reverse rotation of the mandrel stops before the POP Nut is detached from the mandrel (if you released the trigger too early), pull the trigger while pressing the control knob.
