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. 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.
TOOL STICKERS & TAGS 19693 Danger Sticker 15197 PD45 Name Tag NOTE: THE INFORMATION LISTED ON THE STICKERS SHOWN, MUST BE LEGIBLE AT ALL TIMES. REPLACE DECALS IF THEY BECOME WORN OR DAMAGED. REPLACEMENTS ARE AVAILABLE FROM YOUR LOCAL STANLEY DISTRIBUTOR. The safety tag (P/N 15875) at right is attached to the tool when shipped from the factory. Read and understand the safety instructions listed on this tag before removal. We suggest you retain this tag and attach it to the tool when not in use.
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.
► PD45 User Manual 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/EHTMA 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 PRE-OPERATION PROCEDURES TOOL OPERATION CHECK THE POWER SOURCE 1. Observe all safety precautions. 1. Using a calibrated flowmeter and pressure gauge, check that the hydraulic power source develops a flow of 7–9 gpm/26–34 lpm at 2000 psi/140 bar. 2. Install the appropriate adapter as required. 3. Place the post driver foot firmly on the surface to be driven. 2. Make certain the hydraulic power source is equipped with a relief valve set to open at 2100–2250 psi/140 bar. 4.
CHARGING THE ACCUMULATOR ACCUMULATOR TESTING PROCEDURE ACCUMULATOR CHARGING PROCEDURE To check or charge the accumulator the following equipment is required: 1. Perform Steps 1 through 4 of the Accumulator Testing Procedure above. • Accumulator Tester (Part Number 02835). • Charging Kit Assembly (P/N 31254); (includes a regulator, hose and fittings). • NITROGEN bottle with an 800 psi/56 bar minimum charge. 2.
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. • Always keep critical tool markings, such as warning stickers and tags legible. • 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.
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 tool, always make sure the hydraulic power source is supplying the correct hydraulic flow and pressure as listed in the table. Use a flowmeter know to be accurate. Check the flow with the hydraulic fluid temperature at least 80 °F/27 °C. PROBLEM Tool does not run. Tool does not hit effectively. Tool operates slowly. Tool gets hot.
