How to set the blind rivet nut

• Insert the wound down blind rivet nut all the way into the drilled hole of the work piece.
• Start the setting process by pressing the activation button. Hold down activation button!
• The removal process will start automatically once the set setting force has been reached
(see also item 4!). Do not release activation button before the threaded mandrel has been
completely removed from the set nut.

How to remove a nut manually by turning

• If the activation button is released too early after a setting process resulting in the threaded
mandrel not being removed completely or if the nut was positioned askew, you have the
option of starting a manual removal button D (see image 1).
• If it proves impossible to remove the threaded mandrel with the help of removal button D
(for instance in the case of a severely deformed nut), you have the option of removing the
threaded mandrel manually by turning. To loosen the threaded mandrel, insert the sup-
plied hexagon screw driver SW3 into hexagon socket E at the air outlet of the air motor
(see image 1) and turn it carefully anti-clockwise.
