OPERATION
PRE-OPERATION PROCEDURES
TOOL OPERATION
1. Observe all safety precautions.
CHECK THE POWER SOURCE
2. Install the appropriate adapter as required.
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.
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. Press the lever assembly on handle to start the post
driver.
NOTE:
INSTALLING ADAPTERS
On Remote ON/OFF Valve Models Place the post
driver on/off control valve in The ON position to
start the post driver.
1. The post hammer is designed to drive No. 1 through
No. 4 sign post, 2-1/2 inch square and up to 2-5/8
inch diameter round post without requiring adapters.
If you are driving one of these types of post, orient
the post into the tightest fit in the post driver foot.
NOTE:
Adequate down pressure is very important.
5. When the post is fully set in the ground, release the

lever assembly on handle.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
CONNECTING HOSES
If the post hammer is to be used during cold weather,
preheat the hydraulic fluid at low engine speed. When
using the normally recommended fluid, fluid tempera-
ture should be at or above 50°F/10°C (400 ssu/82 cen-
tistrokes) before use.
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 a good
practice to connect return hoses first and discon-
nect them last to minimize or avoid trapped pressure
within the tool.
Damage to the hydraulic system or post driver can result
from use with fluid that is too viscous or thick.
3. If hose couplers are used, observe the arrow on the
coupler to ensure that the flow is in the proper direc-
tion. The female coupler on the tool hose is the inlet
(pressure) coupler.
4. Move the hydraulic power source On/Off control
valve to the ON position to operate the tool.
NOTE:
If uncoupled hoses are left in the sun, pressure in-
crease inside the hoses may make them difficult to
connect. When possible, connect the free ends of
the operating hoses together.

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 con-
nection.
•
•
•
•
•
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 hydrau-
lic tools. Failure to do so may result in damage to
the quick couplers and cause overheating of the hy-
draulic system.
Do not use the tool for applications it was not de-
signed for.
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.
•
•
Always store the tool in a clean dry space, safe from
damage or pilferage.
Do not use the tool for applications for which it was
not intended.
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 flow. 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 mini-
mum working pressure rating of 2500 psi/172 bar.
Do not exceed the rated flow (see Specifications) in
this manual for correct flow rate and model number.
