Hopefully it work, lol
I ordered this same tool the "Astro 1427" and was clearly defective I ended up returning it as the preinstalled M8 mandrel would not spin. I was finally able to tap out the mandrel -this should just drop in place as you can see the internal holes are poorly machined/ not concentric.

I ended up getting this one from Amazon, much better. Also came with some different size rivets which allowed me to make adjustments to get a better estimate of the compression needed so It would compress the rivet in one stroke. It did not come with a plastic case. Hit or miss with Chinese quality.
