Maintenance...

1. Checkthetightnessoftheconnectionsbetweenthejawhousingcoupler,

 nut,jawhousing,andthehydraulicplunger,thenosepiece,theheadand

 thelocknut.

2. If the jaws show excessive wear and/or are dirty, follow the steps

 providedintheservicingproceduressection.

Troubleshooting...

1. Rivet mandrel is gripped by the jaws but the rivet can not be set

and mandrel can not be bro ken:

CAUSE:Lowairpressureorlossofhydraulicfluid.

REMEDY:Increaseairpressureto7bar(100psi)maximumattool.Make

sureallfittingsincludingrearglandandheadaretight.Ifmalfunction

persists,callauthorizedSunexTools

warrantycenter.

2. Mandrel does not fit completely into nosepiece or fails to eject:

CAUSE:JawHousingdistanceincorrect.

REMEDY:Loosentheheadandchecktheratedstrokelength.

Ifshorter,searchforwornordamagedO-ringsandreplaceit.

CAUSE:Jawsaredirtyordamaged.

REMEDY:Cleanorreplacethejaws.

CAUSE:Fatiguedjawpusherspring.

REMEDY:Replacethejawpusherspring.

CAUSE:FatiguedReturnSpring.

REMEDY:Replacethereturnspring.

CAUSE:Airleakageinvacuumsystem.

REMEDY:Searchforwornordamagedsealsinthevacuumsystemand

replaceit.

3. Tool takes more than two strokes under ideal con di tions to set rivet

and break mandrel:

CAUSE:Lowairpressure.

REMEDY: IncreaseairpressurebutdoNOTexceed7bar(100psi)

attool.

CAUSE:LooseNosepieceorimpropersizeofnosepiece.

REMEDY: Tightennosepieceoruserightsize.

CAUSE:Rivetbodytoolongforthethicknessofthejoint.

Operation...

When the Lever/Trigger is depressed, the throttle valve is moved down off

its seat bythe valve tube. Air enters the bottom ofthe air cylinder, forcing
