Frequently Asked Questions - Gyspress Premium 10T Push Pull US GYS

How to adjust the air pressure on the Gyspress Premium 10T riveter?

Use the air pressure adjustment (I-5) and monitor the pressure gauge (I-6). The pressure must not exceed 110 psi. Adjust according to the rivet type and sheet thickness.

What types of rivets can I use with this riveter?

This riveter supports self-piercing rivets (Punch Rivets) and Flow-Form rivets. It is ideal for sheets up to 8.3 mm thickness.

How to change the riveting arm?

Place the arm on the riveter nose aligning the markings (a). Insert the locking pin (I-8) into the hole. Ensure it is clean and undamaged. Screw the supplied extension.

What to do if the cylinder does not advance?

Check the compressed air supply (pressure between 40 and 90 psi). Make sure the speed potentiometer is not at minimum. If the problem persists, inspect the seals or hoses.

How to extract a defective rivet?

Use the extraction tip and corresponding die. To facilitate extraction, make a mark with the center punch tool (048379). In PULL mode, press the trigger to remove the rivet.

How to clean the riveter?

Clean it at least once a week with self-cleaning cloths. Do not use water or flammable liquids. Disconnect compressed air before any maintenance.

What accessories are available for this riveter?

Accessories include arms HR210 and HR310 (option), a riveter stand (054158), a service cart (054233), a force sensor (062115), adapters for blind rivets (063822, 077164, 064867).

What is the maximum air pressure not to exceed?

The maximum air pressure is 110 psi (about 7.6 bar). Never exceed this value to avoid damage or injury.

How to use PULL mode?

PULL mode is used to extract rivets or release the punch. Select PULL mode (I-7) and press the trigger. The pulling force is limited to 20 kN.

What to do in case of an air leak?

Check the hose and couplings. If seals are defective, contact the manufacturer for repair. Replace damaged parts before using the tool.

Once the arm is placed on the riveter, insert the locking pin (I-8) into the slot. The pin locks automatically after insertion, and should not spontaneously escape from the slot.

The locking pin must be clean with no damage. Do not use a damaged pin.

Screw on the extension supplied with the arm. The riveting machine is now ready to use.

MOUNTING THE FITTINGS

Screw the end-cap kit required for the riveting procedure into the arm support. Before each assembly, check that the die and rivet holder are correctly paired (see page 4) and tightened securely.

As soon as the die and the punch support are in place, finish tightening with the delivered spanner. Check that the connection tips are in place after each riveting process. Any loosening is dangerous and may cause damage to the riveter.

AIR PRESSURE CONNECTION

Maximum air pressure: Make sure that the air pressure does not exceed 110 psi.

Clean compressed air: Ensure that only clean, dry compressed air is used to feed the riveter. Moisture and dirt can lead to performance issues and/or damage to the unit.

SPEED AND PRESSURE CONTROL

The user can manually adjust the speed of the ram and the rivet setting force, according to the type of material to be joined, in order to avoid any deformation of the workpiece. To set the pressure according to the dies and materials, see table at the end of the manual.

RIVETS BOX INCLUDED

The riveter is supplied with a box of 300 self-piercing steel rivets (RAP) (ref. 048706). These test rivets are provided for the purpose of testing the riveter and should not be used for automotive repair under any circumstances.

INSTALLATION OF SELF-PIERCING RIVETS

∅ 3.3 mm ∅ 5.3 mm

Four metallic mechanical components labeled A1, A2, B1, B2, showing different mounting or fitting configurations (no text or symbols on the parts themselves)

During the installation of self-piercing rivets, make sure that the rivets are well-placed. The dies must not be damaged as this could cause problems with the riveting process.

To punch the sheet metal to a specific diameter, it is necessary to use a specific die. This die protects the sheet from damage.

After punching, the punch is pushed into the metal sheet and pierces the hole. The sheet is released from the punch, and is ready for riveting. If the punch does not come out of the sheet, use the PULL function of the riveter. Select PULL mode and press the trigger. Once the punch is withdrawn from the sheet, select the PUSH mode.

INSTALLATION OF FLOW FORM RIVETS

Before you can consider joining sheets with Flow-Form rivets, it is necessary to make a pilot hole (see above).

Once the pilot hole has been created, insert the Flow-Form rivet into it.

The F2 die has a drain hole for adhesive residues. After each riveting process, remove adhesive residues from all affected tools.

RIVET EXTRACTION

For car body repairs, old or damaged rivets must be removed from the metal sheets. To avoid the necessity of removing these rivets by drilling, the extraction tip and its die should be used. They allow the rivets to be removed without damaging the sheet metal.

Close-up of a mechanical measuring tool with a dial and adjustment knob (no visible text or symbols)

Before using the riveter, and to facilitate the extraction of self-piercing rivets, an indentation can be made on the rivet with a Centre Punch Tool (048379) so that the extraction punch can subsequently be wedged into the recess.

If the rivet remains in the die hole during extraction, remove it before performing another extraction.

Once the hole is punched, release the pressure immediately. Bringing the point to the end of its travel can generate additional stresses on the point, which may cause it to break.

CONTROLS AND MAINTENANCE

The riveter does not require any special maintenance. A basic periodic visual check is recommended to prevent any breakdown or failure during use.

Clean the riveter at least once a week to remove all dust and dirt that could affect the long-term performance of the product. Use self-cleaning cloths. Do not use any water, nor flammable or corrosive liquids.

During maintenance, the compressed air supply must be disconnected from the unit.
