Sealey SA26 - Manual (Page 3)

 WARNING! Disconnect drill from air supply before changing drill bit, servicing or performing
maintenance. Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be
dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
5.1. Lubricate the drill daily with a few drops of good grade air tool oil, such as Sealey ATO/500 or
ATO/1000, dripped into the air inlet before use or dispensed automatically through an air system oiler,
such as Sealey model number SA106L.
5.2. Clean the drill after use and change the drill bit when worn or damaged.
5.3. Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:
a) Excessive drain on the air supply. Moisture or restriction in the air line. Incorrect size or type of hose
connectors. To remedy check the air supply and follow instructions in Section 3.
b) Grit or gum deposits in the drill may also reduce performance. Flush the drill with gum solvent oil or
an equal mixture of SAE No.10 oil and kerosene. Allow to dry before use.
If you continue to experience problems, contact your local Sealey service agent.
5.4. For a full service contact your local Sealey service agent.
5.5. When not in use, disconnect from air supply, clean drill and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
5. MAINTENANCE
4.3.3. Rotate the button counter-clockwise to release the change over button and switch the direction of
rotation again.
4.4. Standard Drilling Instructions.

WARNING! Ensure you wear approved safety goggles and any other safety item required for the
job. Remove the chuck key before using the drill. Ensure that all other safety requirements
are followed.
4.4.1. Connect drill to air supply.
4.4.2. Hold tool firmly and place the drill bit tip to the point to be drilled.
4.4.3. Depress the trigger to start drill. Move the drill bit into the work piece applying only enough pressure to
keep the bit cutting. DO NOT force or apply side pressure to elongate the hole.
4.4.4. If the material to be drilled is free standing it should be secured in a vice or with clamps to keep it from
turning as the drill bit rotates.
4.4.5. When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep it from overheating. Oil will prolong drill bit
life and improve the drilling action.
4.4.6. For hard smooth surfaces use a centre punch to mark desired hole location. This will prevent the drill
bit from slipping as drilling commences.
4.4.7. A pilot hole may be necessary to assist the final drill size through the work piece. Lock a pilot drill
(smaller size drill than the finished hole size) into the chuck. Follow steps 4.4.1. to 4.4.3. above and
drill a pilot hole in the middle of the centre punch mark where final hole is to be drilled. Insert the
final sized drill bit in chuck. Hold drill firmly and place the bit at the entrance of the pilot hole and
depress the trigger.
 WARNING! Be prepared for drill bit binding on break through. When these situations occur the
drill has a tendency to grab and kick in the opposite direction which could cause loss of control.
If you are not prepared, this loss of control can result in damage and/or personal injury.
4.4.8. If the drill bit jams in the work piece or if the drill stalls, release the trigger switch immediately. Remove
the drill bit from the work piece and determine the reason for jamming.
