Pros: Worked great when finally figuring out how to use it.
Cons: No instructions included.
I used the 2 plates with the groves to press the link on. I didn't know it would stay in place if you loosened the tool after that since this was my first time doing this. Then I disassembled the tool and reassembled it to use the middle screw to mushroom the rivet. I tried the ball bearings like the other reviewer said and all that did was press the ball bearings partially into the link, not mushrooming the rivet. I would recommend using a racket with a allen wrench attachment. If you have any trouble with using the tool, there is a good website you can google that going through it with the motion pro chain press tool that is essentially the exact same tool.

Comments: This tool works on a 520 chain, though you need two steel balls from inside a skate bearing to press the rivet heads out with some good muscle, but it can be done. Once the rivet heads are pressed... (Read the rest of this review)
