Attention: Do not cover or stick anything into the vent holes.
Starting Procedure
Install fully charged battery into housing. Select proper nosepiece (see page 2) and screw into
head.
Operating Procedure
Pushing the trigger starts the operation. When releasing the trigger, the jaw mechanism returns to
the start position automatically.
Eject the spent mandrel into the mandrel container by tilting the tool backward, or through the
nosepiece by tilting tool forward.
The riveting tool is equipped with overload protection. In case if an overload, the operation will
be stopped and the red light goes on. If that happens, release the trigger and the mechanism will
return to the start position.
The battery will deliver uniform power for tool operation until depleted to the last 2-3 rivets of
charge capacity. It is designed to have the jaw mechanism return to the starting position when the
trigger has been released.
Maintenance
The maintenance of the riveting tool is limited to the complete jaw mechanism and the included
wearing parts.
Remove the battery (#40) from the tool housing. Unscrew the head (#13) from the tool and clean
it. Unscrew the jaw housing (#12) from the coupler. Take out the jaws (#11), clean and lubricate
or replace if worn. Reassemble in reverse order and make sure that all parts are tightened!
Warranty
There is a 12 month warranty from the day of delivery on the PT-4000-1. Damages caused by
common wearing, overloading or improper usage or handling are excluded from the warranty.
Damages caused by material or manufacturing faults will be covered by this warranty and will be
repaired or replaced at no cost. Claims can only be accepted if the complete riveting tool, fully
assembled, is returned to the distributor or FSI.
