HOW TO USE:
- Identify the Pin: Ensure the pin you are working with is a roll pin or hollow tension pin that matches the 3.5mm width of this punch.
- Position the Workpiece: Secure the item containing the pin in a vise or on a stable surface to prevent movement during the process.
- Align the Punch: Place the rounded tip of the Mayhew 3.5mm Pilot Pin Punch directly over the end of the roll pin. The patented design will naturally guide the punch into the hollow center of the pin.
- Apply Force: Using a hammer or mallet, strike the striking end of the punch squarely. Apply controlled, steady force to either drive the pin further in or push it out of its hole.
- Monitor Progress: Observe the pin’s movement. If removing, ensure it comes out straight to avoid binding. If inserting, ensure it seats correctly.
- Clean Up: Once the task is complete, clean any debris from the area and store the punch properly.
