4.1. air supply
WarNiNg! ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the drill. too high an air pressure and unclean air
will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
4.1.1. ensure drill air valve (or trigger) is in the “off” position before connecting to the air supply.
4.1.2. You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
4.1.3. drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the drill.
4.1.4. clean air inlet filter weekly. recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig 1.
4.1.5. line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). the minimum hose diameter should be
1/4” internal diameter and fittings must have compatible dimensions.
4.1.6. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. check hose for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.2. couplings.
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the drill. to overcome this, connect a leader hose to the
drill (sealey ref: AH2r or AH2r/38). A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose.
see fig 2 & fig 3.

5.2. connect the drill to the air hose as described in section 4.
5.3. Push the safety catch (fig.1) forward and depress the throttle lever to operate the drill.
6. maiNteNaNce
WarNiNg! disconnect drill from the air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing maintenance. replace or repair
damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Non-authorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
6.1. lubricate the air drill daily with a few drops of sealey air tool oil dripped into the air inlet to prolong its life.
6.2. clean the drill after use.
6.3. loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:
a) excessive drain on the air line. moisture or restriction in the air pipe. incorrect size or type of hose connectors. to remedy check the
air supply and follow instructions in section 4.
b) Grit or gum deposits in the drill may also reduce performance. if your model has an air strainer (located in the area of the air inlet),
remove the strainer and clean it. flush the drill out with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of sAe no 10 oil and paraffin.
Allow to dry before use.
6.4. for a full service contact your local sealey service agent.
6.5. When not in use, disconnect from air supply, clean drill and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
