SECURITY PRECAUTIONS
• Use ONLY BRALO recommended and supplied
spare parts and accessories for this tool.
• Any modifications by the customer to the tool,
accessories or equipment supplied by BRALO SA
will be the sole responsibility of the customer.
• The user must maintain the riveter under safe
working conditions and should regularly inspect it
for proper operation. Repairs should only be
carried out by qualified professionals. If in doubt,
return the tool to your dealer or to BRALO, SA.
• Do not operate a tool that is pointing towards
any person or at the operator themselves.
• Never exceed the tool's rated air pressure limit.
• The tool should not be used without the
mandrel collector attached. This prevents spent
shafts from being freely projected, creating a
hazard for the user and any nearby personnel.
• We recommend emptying the spent mandrel
collector regularly.
• When the tool is transported from one location
to another, keep hands and fingers away from the
trigger button in order to prevent any inadvertent
operation.
• When the tool is not in use, or when adjusting
or removing a nozzle, the compressed air supply
must be fully detached for safe operation.
• When not in use, store the tool securely so that
it cannot fall to do the ground.
• The tool must be operated at all times in
accordance with prevailing health and safety laws
and regulations.
• The continuous sound pressure level present in
the workplace should not exceed 80 dBs. It is
advisable to wear protective hearing gear
(earplugs, cancelling earmuffs, etc.).
