DCKNIVES Report post Posted July 1, 2011 Having not seen the HF tool, hard to tell why it's not grabbing but my guess is there is an adjustment needed at the nose.We had a similar unit where I used to work and the nose came off for cleaning and adjustment.When using air tools one -two drops is all thats needed or wanted.Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benlilly1 Report post Posted July 2, 2011 I would also be interested in knowing if an air rivet gun works well. I'm intending on purchasing one in the future. I just want it to work well without any problems.
