oPeratIng InstructIons
The HK-150 hydraulic riveter installs fasteners by a pull and release system. Placing lever in “PULL” position,
and pumping the handles (see gure 2 on the next page) will actuate the tool. After installing the fastener, the
tool must be returned to its original position, which releases the pintail. To do this, point the tool downward,
place lever in “RELEASE” position, and squeeze handles (see gure 3). The pintail should drop out.
*The HK-150 has a .625 inch work travel and will set most rivets in one cycle. If the tool reaches the end
of its travel before the rivet breaks, DO NOT continue pumping the handles on the tool. Release the tool by
pressing RELEASE Button and then squeezing the handles. Next, regrip the rivet, and pump the HANDLES
and nish the installation.

installation of fastener and function of tool.
2. Remove the Nose Piece in the tool by
unscrewing it in a counterclockwise direction.
