4 ► CS25/28 User Manual
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.
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 pre-
cautions relating to the specic work area and local
safety regulations. If so, place the added precautions in
the space provided in this manual.
The CS25/28 Hydraulic Pole 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 hoses before operation. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
• Operator must start in a work area without bystand-
ers. The operator must be familiar with all prohibited
work areas such as excessive slopes and dangerous terrain conditions.
• Establish a training program for all operators to en-
sure safe operation.
• Do not operate the tool unless thoroughly trained or
under the supervision of an instructor.
• Always wear safety equipment such as goggles,
ear, head protection, and safety shoes at all times
when operating the tool.
• Do not overreach. Maintain proper footing and bal-
ance at all times.
• Do not inspect or clean the tool while the hydraulic
power source is connected. Accidental engagement
of the tool can cause serious injury.
• Supply hoses must have a minimum working pressure rating of 2500 psi/175 bar.
• Be sure all hose connections are tight.
• The hydraulic circuit control valve must be in the
OFF position when coupling or uncoupling the tool.
Wipe all couplers clean before connecting. Use only
lint-free cloths. Failure to do so may result in damage to the quick couplers and cause overheating of
the hydraulic system.
• Do not operate the tool at oil temperatures above
140 °F/60 °C. Operation at higher oil temperatures
can cause operator discomfort and may damage the
tool.
• Do not operate a damaged, improperly adjusted, or
incompletely assembled tool.
• To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, all
tool repair, maintenance and service must only be
performed by authorized and properly trained personnel.
• Do not exceed the rated limits of the tool or use the
tool for applications beyond its design capacity.
• Always keep critical tool markings, such as labels
and warning stickers legible.
• Always replace parts with replacement parts recommended by Stanley Hydraulic Tools.
• Check fastener tightness often and before each use
daily.
• Do not wear loose tting clothing when operating the
tool.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
POLE CHAIN SAW SPECIFIC
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built
into the saw. As a pole saw user, several steps must
be taken to keep your cutting jobs free from accident
or injury.
• With basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden
surprise contributes to accidents.
• Keep a good rm grip on the pole chain saw with
both hands. Place your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the outer tube assembly
when operating. Use a rm grip with your thumbs
and ngers encircling the chain saw handle and outer tube assembly. A rm grip helps reduce kickback
and maintains control of the pole chain 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 a branch or any other obstruction that
can be accidently hit while operating the saw.
• Cut at the rated operating speeds (gpm).
• Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and mainte-
nance instructions for the saw chain.
• Only use replacement bars and chains specied by
Stanley or equivalent.
• Make sure you’re well rested and mentally alert before operating the pole chain saw.
• Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area,
secure footing and a planned drop area for falling
branches.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
during operation.
• Carry the saw with the unit de-energized.
• Do not operate a pole chain saw that is damaged,
improperly adjusted or not completely and securely
assembled. Make sure the chain stops moving when
the control trigger is released.
• Use extreme caution when cutting small branches.
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 aware
of spring back so you will not be struck when the
tension on the limb is released. Always cut on the
outside arc or curve.
• Keep the handle dry, clean and free of hydraulic
uid.
• When using tools near energized transmission lines,
make sure to use only hoses labeled and certied
non-conductive.
• Turn off the power unit or move the hydraulic control
valve to neutral before setting the pole chain saw
down.
• Use a chain 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 HAZARDS
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 qualied arborist to
determine whether an electrical hazard exists before
climbing, or otherwise entering, or performing work in
or on a tree.
Only qualied line-clearance arborists or qualied line-
clearance arborist trainees shall be assigned to work
where an electrical hazard exists. Qualied line-clearance arborist trainees shall be under the direct supervi-
sion of qualied line-clearance arborist.
A second qualied line-clearance arborists or line-clear-
ance 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 rst be
cut (with a pole pruner/pole saw) to sufciently 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.
Qualied 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 qualied line-clearance arborists
and qualied line- clearance arborist trainees.
