HOW TO BREAK OUT RIVETS
NOTE: Always wear approved safety accessories for hands
and face when breaking out rivets.
➊
Select proper anvil slot number on chain-
breaker anvil which matches the drive-
link number on the chain to be broken
(see Chain Drive-link-number Chart on
the next page).
➋
Insert chain portion for breaking into the
proper slot of the chain anvil and push
chain forward until bottom tie strap is
flush with the far side of slot. (Drive link is
then supported on both sides of slot.)
➌
Position rivet head directly under punch.
Pull handle down if using a bench chain
breaker, or hammer out rivet if using a
handheld punch. Do not use excessive
force.
NOTE: Important-when breaking chain at cutter, make sure cutter is in
up position.
