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. These safety precautions are given for your safety. Review them carefully before operating the tool and before performing general maintenance or repairs. Supervising personnel should develop additional precautions relating to the specific work area and local safety regulations. If so, place the added precautions in the space provided in this manual.

The model CS05/CS06 Hydraulic Chain Saw will provide safe and dependable service if operated in accordance with the instructions given in this manual. Read and understand this manual and any stickers and tags attached to the tool and hose before operation. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.

  • The operator must start in a work area without bystanders. Flying debris can cause serious injury.
  • Do not operate the tool unless thoroughly trained or under the supervision of an instructor. Establish a training program for all operators to ensure safe operation.
  • Always wear safety equipment such as goggles, ear and head protection and safety shoes at all times when operating the tool. Use gloves and aprons when necessary.
  • The operator must be familiar with all prohibited work areas such as excessive slopes and dangerous terrain conditions.
  • Do not inspect, clean or replace any parts if the hydraulic power source is connected. Do not inspect or clean the tool while the hydraulic power source is connected. Accidental engagement of the tool can cause serious injury.
  • Always connect hoses to the tool hose couplers before energizing the hydraulic power source. Be sure all hose connections are tight and are in good condition.
  • Do not operate the tool at oil temperatures above 140 °F/60 °C. Operation at higher temperatures can cause higher than normal temperatures at the tool which can result in operator discomfort.
  • 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.
  • Never wear loose clothing that can become entangled in the working parts of the tool.
  • Keep all parts of your body away from the chain saw and maintain proper footing and balance at all times.
  • WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
  • Lead from lead-based paints,
  • crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
  • arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
  • Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. Protect yourself and those around you. Research and understand the materials you are cutting. Follow correct safety procedures and comply with all applicable national, state or provisional health and safety regulations relating to them, including, if appropriate arranging for the safe disposal of the materials by a qualified person.
  • Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the saw. As a chain saw user, several steps must be taken to keep your cutting jobs free from accidents or injury.
    • With basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
    • To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, all tool repair, maintenance and service must only be performed by authorized and properly trained personnel.
    • Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle when operating the saw. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help reduce kickback and maintain control of the saw. Do not let go.
    • Make sure the area in which you are cutting is free of obstructions. Never allow the nose of the guide bar to contact the log, branch or any obstruction that can be accidently hit while operating the saw.
    • Never start the tool while it is lying on the ground.
    • Cut at rated operating speeds (gpm).
    • Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
    • Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
    • Only use replacement bars and chains specified by STANLEY. 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 saw. Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area.
  • Do not starting cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing and a planned escape path from a falling tree.
  • Carry the saw with the unit de-energized and the bar and chain to the rear of your body.
  • Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings. Twigs may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward the operator or pull the operator off balance.
  • When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back so that you will not be struck when the tension on the limb is released.
  • Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil.
  • Do not operate a chain saw while in a tree, unless you have been specially trained to do so.
  • When using tools near energized transmission lines, be sure to use only hoses labeled and certified as non-conductive.
  • Turn off the power unit or move the hydraulic control valve to neutral before setting the saw down.
  • Use a guide bar scabbard when transporting the saw.
  • Know the location of buried or covered electrical services before starting work.
  • To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, all tool repair, maintenance and service must only be performed by authorized and properly trained personnel.

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)

Working in Proximity to Electrical Hazards:
An inspection shall be made by a qualified arborist to determine whether an electrical hazard exists before climbing, or otherwise entering, or performing work in or on a tree. Only qualified line-clearance arborists or qualified line-clearance arborist trainees shall be assigned to work where an electrical hazard exists. Qualified line clearance arborist trainees shall be under the direct supervision of qualified line-clearance arborist. A second qualified line-clearance arborists or line-clearance arborist trainees shall be within vision or voice communication during line-clearing operations aloft when line- clearance arborists or line-clearance arborist trainees must approach closer than 10 feet (3.05 meters) to any energized electrical conductor in excess of 750 volts (primary conductor) or when:

  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.
  2. Roping is required to remove branches or limbs from such electrical conductors. This does not apply to individuals working on behalf of, or employed by, electrical system owners/operators engaged in line-clearing operations incidental to their normal occupation.

Qualified line-clearance arborists and line-clearance arborist trainees shall maintain minimum approach distances from energized electrical conductors in accordance with Table 1. All other arborists shall maintain a minimum approach distance from energized electrical conductors in accordance with Table 2. Branches hanging on an energized electrical conductor shall be removed using non-conductive equipment.

Table 1 – Minimum approach distances from energized conductors for qualified line-clearance arborists and qualified line-clearance arborist trainees.

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/105- 140 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 2100- 2250 psi/145-155 bar.

CONNECT HOSES

  1. Wipe all hose couplers with a clean lint-free cloth before making connections.
  2. Connect the hoses from the hydraulic power source to the tool fittings or quick disconnects. It is good practice to connect return hoses first and disconnect them last to minimize or avoid trapped pressure within the tool.
  3. Observe the arrow on the couplers to ensure that the flow is in the proper direction. The female coupler on the tool hose is the inlet (pressure) coupler.
  4. Move the hydraulic circuit control valve to the “ON” position to operate the tool.

NOTE: If uncoupled hoses are left in the sun, pressure increase inside the hose may make them difficult to connect. Whenever possible, connect the free ends of the hoses together.

SYSTEM SELECTION (OC/CC)
Saws configured with the system selector option require setup for the system, closed-center (CC) or open-center (CC), in which it will operate. The selector screw is located in the bottom end of the valve spool.

  1. Determine the system type.
  2. For operation in a CC system, turn the selector screw fully clockwise. When the selector screw bottoms, CC operation is selected.
  3. For operation in an OC system, turn the selector screw counter-clockwise until meeting resistance (from the retaining ring). Turn the selector screw clockwise and then counter-clockwise to be sure that you are sensing resistance of the retaining ring. Do not force the selector screw.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

The following are general wood cutting procedures and techniques. Differences in the terrain, vegetation, and type of wood will make this information more or less valid for particular areas. For advice on specific woodcutting problems or techniques for your area, consult your local STANLEY representative or your county agent. They can often provide information that will make your work safer and more productive.

CUTTING TIPS

  1. Check the lean of the tree. Tie a weight to a piece of string about 2 feet long. Hang the weight in your line of sight. The string is a good vertical line to help you judge the lean of the tree. The tree should fall the way it is leaning. Trees that are straight (leaning no more than 5 degrees) generally can be felled in any direction.
  2. Avoid felling across another tree, log, rocks, gully or ridge. Do not fell straight uphill or downhill. Fell the tree diagonally to the hill. Consider the wind direction and velocity. Do not attempt cutting in strong winds.
  3. Check the weight distribution. A tree is heavier on the side with the most limbs. It will try to fall on its heavy side. Trim a few limbs to “balance” the tree.
  4. Clear the work area. You need a clean area all around the tree for good footing. Get everything out of the area where the tree will fall. Do not cut trees near structures. Because of the danger of electrocution, use extreme care when cutting trees near power lines.
  5. Before starting the cut, prepare your escape path. Make sure the escape path is clear of brush and branches. The escape path should be at an angle away from the direction of fall.
  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.

FELLING (CUTTING DOWN A TREE) (FIGURE 2)
Observe all safety precautions

NOTCHING OR UNDERCUTTING

  1. The notching or undercutting cut is made on the side you want the tree to fall. Place the saw so the hand guard is close to the tree trunk and the bucking cleat is dug in.

  2. Start the cut horizontally. Pivot the nose of the bar in last. Cut to about one-quarter of the tree’s diameter.

  3. Make a diagonal cut down to meet the horizontal cut and remove the wood from the notch.
    FELLING OR BACK CUT

  4. The felling or back cut is made on the side opposite and at least 2 inches above the horizontal undercut (the felling cut is made higher as the size of the tree increases). Place the saw so the hand guard is close to the tree trunk and the bucking cleat is dug in.

  5. Start the cut horizontally. Pivot the bar in until the cut is being made parallel to the notch cut. Cut until the saw is about 1 or 2 inches from the notch. Do not cut through the notch.
    NOTE: The uncut wood between the felling and notch cuts is called the hinge. The hinge controls the fall of the tree and should be of uniform thickness.

  6. As the saw nears the back cut, watch the treetop and the cut for signs of movement. Be alert as soon as the tree starts to move, turn off the saw, pull it from the tree and move away quickly on your escape route.

  7. For trees larger than bar length, make two felling cuts. Cut in as far as the bar will go, move to the other side and start the second cut in the same manner as the first while pivoting the saw to complete the felling cut.

BUCKING
Bucking is the sawing of a log or fallen tree into smaller pieces.

  1. Observe all safety precautions.
  2. Use both hands. Grip the saw firmly.
  3. Stand uphill. A log that is cut loose may role downhill.
  4. Keep the chain out of the dirt. Dirt will dull the chain. A dull chain is unsafe.
  5. Stand to the left of the saw.

CROSSCUTTING
NOTE:
Before starting to cut through a log try to imagine what is going to happen. Look out for stresses in the log and cut through the log in such a manner that the guide bar will not get pinched.

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.

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. Cut from the bottom. Make a boring cut if the log is close to the ground.
  5. Finish with a bottom cut.

  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.

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. Pull the saw towards you and cut from the top.
  4. Cut from the bottom. Make a boring cut if the log is close to the ground.
  5. Finish with a top cut.STANLEY-CS06-Hydraulic-Chain-Saw-fig-10

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. When using the normally recommended oils, oil should be at or above 50 °F/10 °C (400 ssu/ 82 centistokes) before use. Damage to the hydraulic system or saw can result from use with fluid that is too viscous or thick. Cutting frozen wood causes the cutters to wear, crack and break at the back rivet hole unless proper precautions are taken. To extend chain life when cutting

in cold weather:

  1. Be sure the oiler is working.
  2. Keep the chain tensioned and check often.
  3. Keep the cutters properly sharpened. Touch up at least every hour. Never force a dull chain to cut.
  4. Clean out the bar groove and keep the oil hole open. Turn the bar over to equalize wear on the rails.
  5. Always install a new sprocket with a new chain.

UNDERWATER MODEL MAINTENANCE
After each use, the movable portions of the tool that were exposed to water should be flushed with a water displacing oil, such as WD40™. Remove water and debris as follows:

  1. Spray oil through the tool and displace any remaining water.
  2. Spray oil into the On/Off trigger slot area
  3. Dip or spray the entire tool.
  4. Cycle the tool hydraulically several times before storing away.

TOOL PROTECTION & 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.
  • Make sure the circuit PRESSURE hose (with male quick disconnect) is connected to the “IN” port. The circuit RETURN hose (with female quick disconnect) is connected to the opposite port. Do not reverse circuit flow. This can cause damage to internal seals.
  • Always replace hoses, couplings and other parts with replacement parts recommended by STANLEY. Supply hoses must have a minimum working pressure rating of 2500 psi/172 bar. In addition to the Safety Precautions found in this manual, observe the following for equipment protection and care.
  • Do not exceed the rated flow. See “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 20 for correct flow rate and model number. Rapid failure of the internal seals may result.
  • Always keep critical tool markings, such as warning stickers and tags legible.
  • Tool repair should be performed by experienced personnel only.
  • Make certain that the recommended relief valves are installed in the pressure side of the system.
  • Do not use the tool for applications for which it was not intended.

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 flow meter known to be accurate. Check the flow with the hydraulic fluid temperature at least 80 °F/27 °C.

PROBLEM CAUSE REMEDY
Cuts slow. Insufficient fluid flow or low relief

valve setting.

| Adjust fluid flow to proper gpm. For optimum performance adjust relief valve to 2250 psi/155 psi.
Chain dull.| Sharpen or replace.
Backpressure too high.| Should not exceed 250 psi/17 bar at 8 gpm/30 lpm measured at the end of the tool operating hoses.
Bar turns color.| Insufficient oiler flow.| Adjust oiler per Service Manual.
Tool does not run.| Power unit not functioning.| Check power unit for proper flow and pressure (4 gpm/15 lpm at 1500 psi/104 bar minimum for the CS05 and 7 gpm/26 lpm at 1000 psi/70 bar for the CS06).
Coupler or hoses blocked.| Remove obstruction.
Mechanical failure.| Disassemble tool and inspect for damage.
Tool runs backwards.| Pressure reversed.| and| return| hoses| are| Connect for proper flow direction. Motor shaft rotates clockwise.
On/Off trigger is hard to press.| Pressure reversed.| and| return| hoses| are| Correct for proper flow direction.
Backpressure too high.| Should not exceed 250 psi/17 bar at 8 gpm/30 lpm measured at the end of the tool operating hoses.
Oil leakage around drive sprocket.| Motor shaft seal failure.| Replace as required. Make sure that oil present is not the result of excess oiler flow.
Oil  leakage  between  rear  gear

housing and valve handle assembly.

| Motor face seal failure.| Replace as required.
Chain continues to move after valve

is shut off.

| Chain is too loose.| Tighten chain.
Input flow too high.| Decrease flow.

UNDERWATER TOOLS DEPTH GUIDELINE

UNDERWATER MODELS ONLY

Do not use hydraulic tools underwater that are not designated as an “underwater” model, or this will result in damage to the tool. For underwater hydraulic tools the applications are broken down into four quadrants depending on type of tool and method of operation. The types of tools are percussive and rotational, each with diff erent characteristics allowing for diff erent depth operation. With
percussive tools, the nitrogen accumulator PSI must counter the increase in ambient pressure found at lower depths. Since there is a maximum PSI for percussive tools they are limited to certain depths. Rotational tools do not have accumulators and thus are capable of deeper depths.

The methods are broken into diver operated or remote operated vehicle (ROV). ROV’s can reach lower depths and with an onboard hydraulic power source that is depth compensated, can operate hydraulic tools at depths of thousands of feet. ROV operation is still limited to the tool, for example a percussive tool has the same depth limitation whether ROV or diver operated.

OPERATION OVERVIEW

| PERCUSSIVE| ROTATIONAL
---|---|---
DIVER| Tools: Breakers, Hammer Drills and Chipping Hammers| Tools: Grinders, Saws, Chain Saws

Max Depth: 500’ – limitations due to accumulator PSI max (increase 40 PSI for every 100’)

| Max Depth: 1000’
