How do you tighten the rivet swivel?

The only way to tighten a rivet is to smash it more. A hard piece of steel on one side and a hammer on the other. you may be able to squeeze it with channel lock pliers. I am a skilled guy, so if I were to improve mine I would drill out the rivets and replace them with machine screws and lock nuts, then I could adjust the tension however I wanted. In fact I may do that anyway!

Sorry, I don't think there is any way to tighten a rivet. Mine didn't need any adjustment.

there is a slot on the bottom piece that you slide one of the provided nuts into. This makes it possible to tighten down the machine screw.

get some tie down straps from your local auto parts store or Lowes or Tractor Supply Company. They will have a hook at each end and an adjusting buckle to tighten it down.

I clamp mine onto a std rail. I believe there is a swivel mount option that I did not use. It's good for rail mount. Can't say more tho.

Hi Wailam, I was not able to loosen them as mine were riveted. Hope this helps.

Then you should return it. When rivets are installed on anything, they should be tight and there is no way of tightening them unless you drill them out and install new ones. With this being cookware, it is in your best interest to return it and request for a replacement. I bought this for my neighbor and have not had this problem.

you tighten it with the provided chain saw tool, it has a standard screwdriver head on one end and the wrench on the other. you simply loosen the to bar nuts and then tighten or loosen as needed.

Hold down the silver button and twist the chuck left, insert the tip, turn the chuck right to tighten, then release the silver button

Get a self tapping swivel screw, drill a small pilot hole in the very bottom edge of the stock and screw in the swivel screw. Before you do this remove the butt plate and verify there is enough material where you want the swivel to attach.

You have to twist the ribbed mounting bracket to tighten the desired position.

There is a set screw in the blunt end of the handle. Unscrew it enough to slide the handle on to the square recliner rod and then tighten the set screw.

I just hold below the part where it lengthens or shortens & twist above that part to loosen & then adjust it. Sorry you are having problems. I love my mop!

Not really a swivel, more like remove hight adjustment knob, raise press off pole, rotate press 90 degrees, reinstall press on pole, reinstall adjustment nut and bolt

Just turn clip part till you get it to open enough to be tight when you clamp it shut.

Get a screwdriver and really get in there, it'll tighten! Just took a lil more than a few twists.

You should not have to unscrew anything to swivel the arms. Out of the box, it's a little tight but after you unfold it a few times, it will loosen up.

There is the same time of swivel used for fishing, squeeze it on the wire "loop type" where it is connected to the mouse string - it should open the swivel and you pinch it closed after you put a new mouse on.
