173 forum posts 7 photos | Well, today I found out the reason for the lack of oil in my progress drill. The quill oil seal is allowing oil to pass at an alarming rate. So my question to you all is. Who sales new oil seals in the U.K. and has I need to remove the quill, I may as well renew the bearings. So who sales the correct bearings. If anyone knows, can they please let me know. Thanks |

2742 forum posts 39 photos | Hello Michael, You could try Just Bearings [look them up on Google] who sell a comprehensive range of bearings, oil seals and other such useful stuff, or take the extracted parts to your local bearing agent and see if they can match them. I don't know the drill model at all so can't offer advice on how to take it to pieces I would suggest too, once you have daylight on it, you look at the condition of the fibre gear. The untimely release of drive under load which started this thread could have damaged the teeth and that too may need replacing. PM me for help with that. Regards Brian |

173 forum posts 7 photos | Thanks Brian. I will have a look on just bearings site. I am lucky in the fact that there is a few videos on utube showing how the drill comes apart. A bit of a pain. But simple enough. Thanks again for the link. |
