SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CUTTING WHEEL SAFETY
Do not store or transport the saw with the wheel in­stalled.
Ensure that the cutting wheel is correctly mounted and tightened before use.
Operate the Rail Saw at “no load” for 30 seconds in a safe position and ensure there is no vibration or other defects detected. If considerable vibration or other defects are detected, stop operation of the tool immediately and determine the cause. Do not use the tool until the defect is corrected.
If the Rail Saw is dropped with a cutting wheel in­stalled, the cutting wheel should be examined thor­oughly before use.
Only use cutting wheels that comply with ANSI B7.5/ ISO 525, 603.
Check that the maximum operating speed (rpm – revolutions per minute) of the cutting wheel is equal to or greater than the rated shaft speed of the grind-
er. Stanley recommends wheels rated at 4700 RPM for 16 inch models and 5300 RPM for 14 inch mod­els.

OPERATION
PRE-OPERATION PROCEDURES
CHECK HYDRAULIC POWER SOURCE
1. Using a calibrated owmeter and pressure gauge, check that the hydraulic power source develops a
ow of 9–10.5 gpm/34–40 lpm at 2000 psi/140 bar.
2. Make certain the hydraulic power source is equipped with a relief valve set to open at 2200–2300 psi/152– 159 bar minimum.
3. Check that the hydraulic circuit matches the tool for open-center (OC) operation.
CHECK TOOL
1. Make sure all tool accessories are correctly in­stalled. Failure to install tool accessories properly can result in damage to the tool or personal injury.
2. There should be no signs of leaks.
3. The tool should be clean, with all ttings and fasten- ers tight.
CHECK TRIGGER MECHANISM
1. Check that the trigger operates smoothly and is free to travel between the ON and OFF positions.
CHECK GUARD ASSEMBLY
1. Inspect the wheel guard assembly for cracks and other structural damage.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING ABRASIVE CUTTING WHEELS
NOTE: Use 14 in./350 mm diameter (for 14 in. model) or 16
in./400 mm diameter (for 16 in. model) abrasive cut­ting wheels with a 1 in. arbor hole. Only use cutting wheels which comply with ANSI B7.5/ISO 525, 603. Make sure the paper labels or blotters are installed between the wheel and collars.
1. Before installing abrasive wheels, “sound” the wheel for possible damage by hanging the wheel vertically be the arbor hole and rapping lightly with a screw­driver handle or similar instrument. Thin, organic bond wheels will produce a low drumming tone if it is physically sound. If the wheel produces a “dead” or “at” sound, it may be cracked. Cracked or dam­aged wheels must never be used.
2. Check that the surfaces of the wheel that come in
contact with blotters and anges are free of dirt and
other foreign particles.
3. Remove the jam nut (77) and outside collar (78) by using a box type wrench while gripping the cutting wheel.
4. Install the cutting wheel. Make sure blotters or labels remain on the cutting wheel.
5. Reinstall the outside collar and jam nut. Tighten the jam nut with a box type wrench while gripping the
cutting wheel. Only tighten sufciently to prevent
slippage of the wheel between the collars (78 & 79).
DRIVE SHAFT SPEED CHECK
The speed of the motor output shaft should be checked at least every 100 hours of operation by trained and experienced personnel. A record of the speed checks should be maintained. The rated speed of the RS25 Rail Saw is 3600 rpm at 10 gpm/38 lpm for the 16 inch/400 mm model and 4500 rpm at 10 gpm/38 lpm for the 14 inch/350 mm model. The cutting wheel must be rated for a minimum of 4700 rpm for the 16 inch/400 mm mod­el and 5300 rpm for the 14 inch/350 mm model. Tests should be conducted while operating the normal power supply used with the saw.
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 hose couplers on the rail saw. It is a good practice to connect the return hose rst and discon­nect it last to minimize or avoid trapped pressure within the rail saw motor.
3. Observe ow indicators stamped on hose couplers
to be sure that oil will ow in the proper direction.
The female coupler is the inlet coupler.
NOTE: The pressure increase in uncoupled hoses left in the
sun may result in making them difcult to connect.
When possible, connect the free ends of operating hoses together.

6. While holding onto the upper link of the rail clamp assembly (near the red knob of the handle), release the detent (129) by turning the knob and then posi­tion the lower link forward (away from the operator) until the detent can be re-engaged in one or the oth­er of the two holes away from the “top dead center hole”. This positions the saw so that the operator may stand erect while cutting the rail and also allows
the saw to cut down to the ange of the rail.
An optional method is to disengage the detent and adjust the capscrews (see Figure 2) as required.
7. Adjust the wheel guard (87) so that it does not in­terfere with the cutting process and cuttings are di­rected away from the operator.
SAWING THE RAIL
1. Always start the rail saw with the cutting wheel away from the work surface.
2. Start the cut with the wheel rotating.
NOTE: Do not “bump” the rail. Feed the wheel through
the material as fast as possible without allowing the wheel to reduce its speed. Cutting through the material too slowly allows heat expansion and can cause wheel “pinching” in the material. “Pinching” the wheel from heat expansion is one of the most common causes of wheel breakage.
3. Starting at the top of the rail, cut straight down while rocking the handle back and forth. Cut down until
near the ange.
4. When near the ange, stop the saw, release the de- tent and move the lower link toward the operator un­til the detent can be re-engaged in one of the holes away from the “top dead center hole”. This positions
the saw lower so that the ange of the rail may be
easily cut.
If the detent has been removed in favor of using the capscrews as stops for the lower link, simply move the lower link toward the capscrew closest to the op­erator.
If the wheel is worn such that it will not completely cut through the rail, loosen the clamp lever on the saw, and rotate the saw to allow cutting from the op­posite side. Readjust the lower link as required and
nish the cut.

CAUTION
OPERATION
DETACHING THE UPPER AND LOWER LINKS
The upper and lower links of the rail clamp assembly can be detached from the motor mount (50) by unscrew­ing the handle (20).
SAW STORAGE
By disengaging the double cam (52), the rail clamp as-
sembly can be rotated so that the entire saw has a atter prole for storage.
Do not store the saw with the abrasive wheel attached.
CARE OF ABRASIVE CUT-OFF WHEELS
All abrasive cut-off wheels are breakable and,
therefore, care must be exercised during handling
and storage to prevent damage.
Wheels should be laid on a at, rigid, surface away from
excessive heat or moisture. Wheels should not be stored where they will be exposed to high humidity, water, other liquids or freezing temperature. If wheels are supplied with blotters attached, suitable separators should be
used to preserve atness.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the saw is to be used during cold weather, preheat
the hydraulic uid at low engine speed. When using the normally recommended uids, uid temperature should
be at or above 50 °F/10 °C (400 ssu/82 centistokes) be­fore use.
INVESTIGATION OF WHEEL BREAKAGE
If a wheel breaks during use, a careful investigation should be conducted by to determine the cause of the breakage. The cause must then be corrected before us­ing the saw again.
If unable to determine the cause of breakage, the wheel manufacturer should be consulted.

NOTICE
TOOL PROTECTION & CARE
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.
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 cir-
cuit ow. This can cause damage to internal seals.
Always replace hoses, couplings and other parts
with replacement parts recommended by Stanley Hydraulic Tools. Supply hoses must have a mini­mum working pressure rating of 2500 psi/172 bar.
Do not exceed the rated ow (see Specications) in this manual for correct ow 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 grinder, always check that the hydraulic power source is supplying the
correct hydraulic ow and pressure to the grinder as listed in the table. Use a owmeter known to be accurate. Check the ow with the hydraulic oil temperature at least 80 °F/27 °C.
SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Saw does not run. Hydraulic power source not
functioning correctly.
Coupler or hoses blocked. Remove obstruction.
Mechanical failure. Have tool serviced by authorized
Saw runs backwards. Pressure and return lines incorrectly
connected.
Saw cuts too slow. Insufcient uid ow or too high back-
pressure or relief valve set too low.
Wrong wheel for material being cut. Use correct wheel.
Fluid leakage. Seal failure. Do not use. Have serviced by an
Off-center cut and binding. Bearings worn on link arms. Have unit serviced by an authorized
Incorrect cutting technique. Review operating procedures.
Check power source for proper ow
and pressure (7–10 gpm/26–34 lpm, 2000 psi/140 bar.
