CS05/ CS06 HYDRAULIC CHAIN SAW Safety, Operation and Maintenance USER MANUAL © 2012 Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. New Britain, CT 06053 U.S.A. 66864 1/2013 Ver.
TABLE OF CONTENTS SAFETY SYMBOLS...................................................................................................................................................4 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS...........................................................................................................................................5 ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS..................................................................................................................................
SAFETY SYMBOLS Safety symbols and signal words, as shown below, are used to emphasize all operator, maintenance and repair actions which, if not strictly followed, could result in a life-threatening situation, bodily injury or damage to equipment. This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Tool operators and maintenance personnel must always comply with the safety precautions given in this manual and on the stickers and tags attached to the tool and hose. • Do not operate a damaged, improperly adjusted, or incompletely assembled chain saw. Be sure that the chain stops moving when the control trigger is released. These safety precautions are given for your safety. Review them carefully before operating the tool and before performing general maintenance or repairs.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS –– maintenance instructions for the saw chain. –– Only use replacement bars and chains specified by Stanley Hydraulic Tools. Chains must meet the requirements of ANSI B175.1 for low kickback performance. • Always be well rested and mentally alert before operating the chain saw. • Do not allow other persons to be near the chain saw when starting or cutting with the chain saw. Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area.
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS The following guidelines must be followed to prevent accidental contact with overhead electrical conductors and/or communication wires and cables. (ref. ANSI Z133.1-2000) 1. Branches or limbs being removed cannot first be cut (with a pole pruner/pole saw) to sufficiently clear electrical conductors, so as to avoid contact. Working in Proximity to Electrical Hazards: 2. Roping is required to remove branches or limbs from such electrical conductors.

TOOL STICKERS & TAGS Lwa DANGER D Failure to use hydraulic hose labeled and certified as non-conductive when using hydraulic tools on or near electric lines may result in death or serious injury. 30 LPM @ 138 B AR EHTMA CATEGORY For proper and safe operation read owners manual 11207 Circuit Type D Decal (CE Models Only) and mwke sure that you have been properly ELECTROCUTION HAZARD trained in correct procedures required for work on or around electric lines.
HOSE TYPES The rated working pressure of the hydraulic hose must be equal to or higher than the relief valve setting on the hydraulic system. There are three types of hydraulic hose that meet this requirement and are authorized for use with Stanley Hydraulic Tools. They are: Certified non-conductive — constructed of thermoplastic or synthetic rubber inner tube, synthetic fiber braid reinforcement, and weather resistant thermoplastic or synthetic rubber cover.
All hydraulic hose must meet or exceed specifications as set forth by SAE J517. All hydraulic hose must have at least a rated minimum working pressure equal to the maximum hydraulic system relief valve setting. This chart is intended to be used for hydraulic tool applications only based on Stanley Hydraulic Tools tool operating requirements and should not be used for any other applications.
HTMA REQUIREMENTS HTMA / EHTMA REQUIREMENTS HTMA HYDRAULIC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS TYPE I Nominal Operating Pressure (at the power supply outlet) 4-6 gpm (15-23 lpm) 1500 psi (103 bar) TOOL TYPE TYPE II TYPE RR 7-9 gpm (26-34 lpm) 1500 psi (103 bar) 9-10.
OPERATION PREOPERATION PROCEDURES CHECK POWER SOURCE 1. Using a calibrated flowmeter and pressure gauge, check that the hydraulic power source develops a flow of 4-6 gpm/15-23 lpm at 1500-2000 psi/105140 bar for the CS05 or a flow of 7-9 gpm/26-34 lpm at 1000-2000 psi/70-140 bar for the CS06. 2. Make certain that the hydraulic power source is equipped with a relief valve set to open at 21002250 psi/145-155 bar. CONNECT HOSES 1. Wipe all hose couplers with a clean lint-free cloth before making connections.
OPERATION 6. The saw chain should cut with very little pressure applied to the handle. If you have to force the saw to cut or if the cut is not straight, cease cutting immediately to prevent further saw chain and bar damage. See the Maintenance and Adjustments section of the Service Manual for chain replacement or adjustment procedures. 7. Underwater models require daily preventive maintenance. See the Maintenance and Adjustments section of the Service Manual for these maintenance procedures.
OPERATION LOGS WITH PRESSURE ON TOP (FIGURE 3) 1. Observe all safety precautions. 2. Begin with an upper cut, down from the top. Do not cut too deeply. A cut of about 1/3 of the log diameter is enough. 3. Finish with a bottom cut. They should meet. Figure 3. Crosscutting Logs with Pressure on Top THICK LOGS LARGER THAN BAR LENGTH WITH PRESSURE ON TOP (FIGURE 4) 1. Observe all safety precautions. 2. Begin by cutting on the opposite side of the log. 3. Pull the saw towards you and cut from the top. 4.
OPERATION LOGS/LIMBS WITH PRESSURE ON BOTTOM (FIGURE 5) 1. Observe all safety precautions. 2. Begin with a bottom cut. The depth of the cut should be about 1/3 of the log diameter. 3. Finish with an upper cut, down from the top. The saw cuts should meet. Figure 5. Crosscutting Logs/Limbs with Pressure on Bottom. THICK LOGS LARGER THAN BAR LENGTH WITH PRESSURE ON THE BOTTOM (FIGURE 6) 1. Observe all safety precautions. 2. Begin by cutting on the opposite side of the log. 3.
OPERATION PRUNING AND DEBRANCHING 1. Observe all safety precautions. 2. Use both hands. Keep a firm grip. 3. Be alert for kickback. Do not allow the tip of the bar to touch anything while the chain is in motion. 4. Do not cut overhead. Keep the saw below chest level. The chain is too close to your face in this position. COLD WEATHER OPERATION If the saw is to used during cold weather, preheat the hydraulic fluid at low engine speed.
TOOL PROTECTION & CARE NOTICE In addition to the Safety Precautions found in this manual, observe the following for equipment protection and care. • Make sure all couplers are wiped clean before connection. • The hydraulic circuit control valve must be in the “OFF” position when coupling or uncoupling hydraulic tools. Failure to do so may result in damage to the quick couplers and cause overheating of the hydraulic system. • Always store the tool in a clean dry space, safe from damage or pilferage.
TROUBLESHOOTING If symptoms of poor performance develop, the following chart can be used as a guide to correct the problem. When diagnosing faults in operation of the saw, always make sure the hydraulic power source is supplying the correct hydraulic flow and pressure to the saw as listed in the table. Use a flowmeter known to be accurate. Check the flow with the hydraulic fluid temperature at least 80 °F/27 °C. PROBLEM Cuts slow.
