■ Use only lubricants recommended by the manufacturer.
■ Suitable safety goggles must be worn; wearing of protective gloves
and safety clothing is recommended.
■ Never use the machine without a rivet.
■ Only operate the machine if the additional machine tool is properly
attached to the machine with a suitable locking mechanism.
■ There is a risk of electrostatic discharge if the machine is used on
plastic and other non-conductive materials.
Hazards caused by dust and vapours
■ The dust and vapours produced by using the rivet gun can be
hazardous to health (e.g. cause cancer, birth defects, asthma
and/or dermatitis); it is essential to carry out a risk assessment in
respect of these risks and to implement corresponding regulatory
mechanisms.
■ The risk assessment should include all dust caused by the use of the
machine and any existing dust that may be whirled up at the same time.
■ The rivet gun is to be operated and maintained in accordance with
the recommendations contained in this manual to keep the release
of dust and vapours to a minimum.
■ The exhaust air should be routed so that the raising of dust in
already dusty environments is kept to a minimum.
■ If dusts or vapours are created, the main priority must be to control
these at the site of their release.
■ All inserts or accessories of the machine intended for collecting, ex-
tracting or suppressing airborne dust or vapours or should be used
and serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
■ Consumables/machine tools should be selected, maintained and
replaced in accordance with the recommendations in this guide in or-
der to avoid unnecessary intensification of dust or vapour production.
