**ALWAYS** HAD 100% POSITIVE eBAY FEEDBACK SINCE 1999, NOT JUST IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS. BID OR BUY WITH CONFIDENCE! ITEM DESCRIPTION: PLEASE NOTE!!! THIS TOOL **DOES** APPEAR TO WORK, BUT IT HAS ISSUES AND I CAN’T TEST IT FULLY. SO I’M NOT SURE HOW WELL IT WORKS. I’M LISTING IT AS “FOR PARTS OR NOT” WORKING. THIS ITEM IS SOLD STRICTLY AS-IS. NO RETURNS ON THIS ITEM, SO CONSIDER YOUR PURCHASE CAREFULLY!!! PLEASE READ THE FULL CONDITION DESCRIPTION. This is an Avdel type 0749 heavy-duty hydro-pneumatic fastener installation tool designed to install Moxlok®, Avtainer®, Hemlock®, and other similar fastener types. This is an industrial quality tool that is ideal for batch or flow-line assembly work in a wide variety of applications throughout all industries. Weight: 6.6 lbs. (3 kg.). This tool is equipped with a large nose assembly that looks like it can handle 3/16” or 1/4" rivets but it does NOT have a nosepiece. Also includes 1/4" NPT air connector and a copy of the instruction manual. Stem deflector is missing. ITEM CONDITION: This tool is in fair to good physical condition. It is very clean. It has dents, scuffs, nicks, scratches, gouges, stains, and engraving marks. The tool does appear to work but I can’t test it fully. The tool does not have a nosepiece and I don’t have any nosepieces that fit this tool, so I can’t test it on any rivets. The tool does appear to cycle normally. Though, after the trigger is pulled and held down, the puller shaft retracts and then moves forward slightly. It may just be that the tool needs to have the hydraulic oil topped up. But, I don't know this for certain. There is a slight air leak at the brass fitting for the air connector. Air does not leak from this location when the trigger is pulled and held down. The stroke appears to be shorter than listed in the manual, only about half an inch, not .95 inches. FOR THESE REASONS, I’M LISTING THIS TOOL AS “FOR PARTS OR NOT” WORKING. THIS ITEM IS SOLD STRICTLY AS-IS. NO RETURNS ON THIS ITEM, SO CONSIDER YOUR PURCHASE CAREFULLY!!! PHOTOS: Here are some detailed photos of the exact item you are buying: A NOTE ABOUT USED PNEUDRAULIC RIVETING TOOLS: PLEASE READ, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE WORLD OF PNEUDRAULIC TOOLS!!! I am NOT a certified air hydraulic/pneudraulic riveting tool mechanic or technician. But I have been buying/selling/operating/refurbishing these types of tools for a number of years, and I’ve gained some experience. For anyone who is interested, these are my observations. Anyone looking at this listing knows that many used air hydraulic / pneudraulic riveting tools are sold on ebay. They are typically listed as “as is”, “not sure if it’s working”, “I have no way of testing it”, or maybe even “it works great!”, and leave it at that. The truth is more complicated and there’s always some risk involved in buying one of these tools used. Unless you KNOW that the tool is new or recently rebuilt, or unless you take it apart, it’s difficult to determine its actual working condition, and how long it will last before it does need a rebuild. First and foremost, if you are going to be using your own Cherry, GBP, Huck, and other pneudraulic riveting tools, you MUST have a hydraulic fluid bleeder tool! For Cherry and GBP tools, this is usually a specially designed bottle or syringe. For Huck and other tools, it could be an accordion-shaped bleeder. The bleeder will tell you a lot about the condition of the tool without opening the tool up. The bleeder bottle will remove any trapped air in the hydraulic system, top up the fluid, and keep your riveter working at maximum performance. A pneudraulic riveting tool is a high-pressure device containing many seals/gaskets. If some of the seals are a little worn, air will slowly creep back into the system, but the tool will still work fine as long as you bleed and top it up regularly. Eventually, the seals will wear to the point where you need to rebuild the tool. Note that some of the seals will wear out over time simply from age, even if you don’t use the tool. When you operate the tool, you may seem some vapor/mist blowing out around the trigger area as well as the air exhaust, typically located at the bottom of the tool. It’s normal to see some vapor but it can also be misleading and indicate trouble. You need to put a plastic bag under the exhaust, cycle the tool several times, and see what residue is left. Is it hydraulic oil, or just condensation from the water in your air compressor lines mixed with some air tool oil? Hard to tell. Most people probably do not have a truly professional properly filtered compressed air source, so sometimes, the natural water condensation in your air compressor lines, mixed with air tool oil, will appear to be hydraulic oil. Even if your tool is blowing a small bit of internal hydraulic oil, you may be able to work the tool just fine and for a long time before you need a rebuild, as long as you bleed the tool and top it up regularly. So, when I sell you a tool and indicate that its working condition is from fair to excellent, I mean that in the context of what I have described here. Because of all the variables, I won’t offer any guarantees, but I’ll do my best to describe the tool’s condition and operation. Feel free to ask any additional questions.
