1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.2 GENERAL SAFETY
pWARNING! Disconnect drill from mains power before changing accessories, servicing or performing any maintenance.
3Maintain the drill in good condition (use an authorised service agent).
pWARNING! Keep all guards and holding screws in place, tight and in good working order. Check regularly for
damaged parts. A guard or any other part that is damaged should be checked, before the tool is used, to
ensure that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. The safety guard is a mandatory fitting
where drill is used in premises covered by the Health & Safety at Work Act.
3Refer to speed chart for recommended drilling speeds.
3Check alignment of moving parts and check for possible broken parts.
3Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will
invalidate the warranty.
3Ensure the set screws of the head frame are screwed tight before using the drill.
3Secure the drill to the floor to avoid it tipping, sliding or walking.
3Drill is designed for use with drill bits only.
3Ensure the chuck is securely fastened to the spindle.
3Remove adjusting keys, chuck key and wrenches from the machine and working area before switching on.
3Use clamps or a vice (not included, but available from your Sealey dealer) to secure the workpiece.
pWARNING! DO NOT attempt to hold the workpiece by hand.
pWARNING! Always wear approved eye or face protection when operating this drill. Use a face or dust mask if dust is generated.
pWARNING! DO NOT wear gloves when drilling.
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
 WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other
connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A
Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current
Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected
by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances
and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2.
and use a Portable Appliance Tester.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all
connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply
to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Immediately have any faulty
item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When an ASTA/BS approved UK
3 pin plug is damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.
Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been
correctly connected, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only.
To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.
1.1.10. Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified electrician to ensure
that a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an industrial round pin plug and socket
with your electrician.
1.1.11. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance
plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the
capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use
of 2.5mm² section cable. If extension reel is to be used outdoors, ensure it is marked for outdoor use.

pWARNING! Ensure the drill is unplugged from the mains power supply before commencing.
6.1. Install drill bit
6.1.1. Insert drill bit into chuck jaws to 1" (25mm) deep (avoid inserting small bits too far) and centre bit in chuck before tightening.
6.2. Adjusting the table
6.2.1. To adjust table up or down, loosen the clamp bolt (fig.2.B) then turn the bracket handle (fig.2.A).
6.2.2. To adjust table tilt, loosen the work table bolt (fig.2.C), adjust to the desired angle using the angle scale, then retighten bolt.
6.2.3. To turn the table around the column, loosen the rack collar slightly, then loosen the clamp bolt (fig.2.B).
Turn the table to the desired position then secure the bolt and the rack collar.
6.3. Adjusting the speed
6.3.1. Open the pulley case and loosen the belt tension lock screws (fig.6.A) - one either side of head.
6.3.2. Choose the speed for drilling operation (see drill speed chart - Section 7) and move the belts to the

6.4. Belt tension
6.4.1. With the belt tension lock screws (fig.6.A) loose and using hand pressure on the adjusting handle
(fig.5.C), set tension so that belt give is no more than 1/2" (13mm). Tighten lock screws.
6.5. Positioning the workpiece
6.5.1. Use a piece of wood to rest the workpiece on. The drill bit may break through the workpiece and damage the table otherwise.
The wood should rest on the table so that one end of it is against the left side of the column, to prevent it spinning when the drill bit
breaks through the workpiece.
6.5.2. For small workpieces that cannot be clamped to the table, use a drill vice (not included). Vice must be clamped or bolted to table.
6.6. Setting the drill depth
6.6.1. Use the scale on the side of the drill head near the drill handle.
6.6.2. Loosen locking screw (fig.5.D) and set the scale to the depth desired. Tighten locking screw.
6.6.3. When ready to drill, simply pull the feed handle. The drill will stop at the set depth.
6.7. Illumination (PDM155B only)
6.7.1. The workpiece illumination is controlled by the rocker switch located immediately above the main power switch on the front of the
head.
