HOW TO USE:
- Select the Right Air Hammer: Ensure your pneumatic air hammer is compatible with a 0.401-inch shank. Check your air hammer's chuck size if unsure.
- Insert the Punch: Firmly insert the shank end of the Mayhew Taper Punch into the chuck of your pneumatic air hammer until it is securely seated. Some air hammers may require a quick-change retainer spring.
- Prepare Your Workpiece: Position the component you intend to work on securely. For driving pins or rivets, ensure the target area is clear and stable. For peening or crimping, ensure the material is accessible and supported.
- Position the Punch Tip: Place the 3/8" diameter point of the punch directly onto the specific area you wish to impact or deform. Maintain a firm grip on your air hammer.
- Initiate Operation: Engage your pneumatic air hammer's trigger. Start with short bursts or lighter pressure if fine control is needed, increasing force as necessary. The punch will deliver rapid, precise impacts to the target.
- Monitor Progress: Continuously observe the effect of the punch on the workpiece. Adjust pressure or reposition the punch as required to achieve the desired outcome.
- Remove After Use: Once the task is complete, disengage the air hammer and carefully remove the punch from the tool. Clean the punch if needed before storing.
