why are my rivets getting stuck in the jaws?

Have you tried adjusting air pressure? Are you riveting from a down position verses sideways or upside down. It won't collect rivets from a down position which can get stuck. You can try a little oil as well. Hope this helps :)

Make sure you are using a full 120lbs. of air pressure and hold the trigger on until it cycles through.

I don't know! Mine does the same thing, I leave it and allow the next rivit to push it out the back!

Especially with aluminum rivets, the grippers can shave a little metal off the stem. This can build up and cause a jamb. Cleaning the jaws and keeping it lubed with something like a graphite lock lubricant should help.

couple of thoughts. The angle? It needs to drop down to the the container. Another thought, have you oiled the rivet gun? You using the correct size rivets for the jaws you have in place? Never had this problem with mine but I have less than 50 rivets through the gun.

lots of possibilities on this ....have you tried following the lubing instructions ? ? ?

Are your rivets painted on the shafts? Paint will clog the teeth. Sometimes, it will only take a few. Blow it out, and then put pneumatic tool oil in the front end. Oiling the jaws will help them open better regardless of the paint issue if they are sticking closed. If it continues, try using a different size rivet

Clean the jaws. Treat them with WD40. Set the rivet then hold the riveter with the nozzle vertical to drop the pull shank into the canister. Mine works perfect.

Mine were on VERY tight, I ended up using a butterknife to pry the edges away so it would slide. My thumbs hurt, but we were finally able to move the screw caps.

I suspect the screws are too tight. You may want to spray some WD-40 and try and loosen the internal brass fittings. Be careful, the black levers will snap off.

This happened to me. Its stuck to the part it needs to unscrew from. I tightened it down first then it unscrewed.

I cleaned out the slots where they insert, but they will not slide in and make good contact. This has been and ongoing problem for me with the Dremel tools.

I have sometimes problems with that too, that locking mechanism is a weak point of the saw.lubrication does not really do the trick and it attracts dirt, I more than once gave the latch a little love tap with a hammer to loosen it up.

I found that in addition to the advice offered by the other two answers, in my case it was VERY important to keep the drill level (on the same plane as the screw) to aid in getting a bite. It worked for me. Good luck.

the rear clamping jaw might be reversed. If oriented correctly, the jaw will close and hold something paper thin. If it is reversed, you just have to slide it off, flip it around and then you can close it tighter.

You are putting too much pressure on the knife. Just hold it gently and drag it thru the slots. I did the same thing at first.

I'm not sure exactly what you are describing but it seems not to be a carpenter problem but rather a mechanical problem that appears the "set screw" are not tightened down on the handle rod. Perhaps more info would help me to understand your problem better. I still have my old lock set to use as a model. My new one is still working great!

Sorry, but I did not experience this issue so I can't really help you. If you can get enough grip with the vice grips, remember to twist out and not pull due to the threads on the screw.

I have had the same issue and I think it has to do with the torque of the fastener you are trying to remove, you have to break that initial torque on certain fasteners, bolts, screws etc., and then it will be fine. It is an inconvenience but I still like using the tool and still happy with my purchase.

Doug, my straps are held with rivets. I guess you could remove the rivets and reattach using screws and nuts how you wanted.

Not sure what you are referring to. I am not aware of any rivets where food could get stuck. The issue i had was that the non stick properties vanished after 6 months or so. I have been notified that i will receive a new pan and will update how it performs.

I found they sometimes get a bit stuck. Normally they should come out by pushing them lightly. Usually it helped when I unscrewed that bit just slightly until the legs drop out and then screw it up again.

I've had a similar problem. However, I realized that i wasn't pushing the screwdrivers down far enough into the handles after use. That's the only time that I experienced an issue with the pliers getting caught or stuck on the screw drivers.

I had this problem at first as well, if you make sure to loosen the straps all the way and give them a firm tug they come out pretty far. Sometimes they get caught up or bound.
