- Thread Rivet Nut: Thread the selected rivet nut onto the mandrel of the tool until it is snug against the nose end.
- Inserir a porca remachable: Insert the rivet nut into the pre-drilled hole in your workpiece.
- Operate Tool: Firmly squeeze the handles of the rivet nut tool together. You will feel resistance as the rivet nut deforms and clamps onto the material. Continue squeezing until the rivet nut is fully set and you feel a distinct stop or a slight give.
