Chapter 1 SAFETY Your Diamond Products CC21 hydraulic hand saw has been designed to be as safe and efficient as possible. However, hand sawing can be hazardous if proper safety precautions are not taken and operating instructions are not followed carefully. Study this manual and remember all warnings, cautions, and tips. Keep a copy of the manual near the job site to allow the operator to review any section as needed.
• • Hydraulic power units are designed with the ability to vary the blade speed. Never operate the saw at a speed higher than the maximum safe allowable speed indicated on the blade. If you are unsure of the operating speed, contact the manufacturer or Diamond Products. Avoid getting in direct line with the blade. GENERAL SAW SAFETY • Never leave the saw unattended while running. • Do not exceed the rated pressure of hydraulic components.

WARNING! Spinning the blade faster than the manufacturer’s recommended speed can damage the blade and cause serious personal injury. Some manufacturers, including Diamond Products, mark the maximum safe RPM on the blade. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM Your CC21 hydraulic hand saw is designed to operate from a separate hydraulic power unit providing either 10 to 14 gpm at 2500 psi (1.27 CI Motor) or 12 to 17 gpm at 2500 psi (1.58 CI Motor).
Chapter 3 HYDRAULIC HAND SAW SET UP INSTRUCTIONS HYDRAULIC LINE CONNECTIONS WARNING! Never try to connect or disconnect the hoses while the power unit is running and/or the hoses are under pressure. 1. Connect the hydraulic lines to the blade drive motor and the water line to the water manifold. 2. Ensure the lines are located such that they will not interfere with travel or be cut by the blade. 3. Before mounting the blade, be sure the blade shaft turns clockwise (looking toward the saw at the blade).
Chapter 4 OPERATING THE SAW NOTE Ensure the saw is properly set up and ready for operation in accordance with Chapter 3 of this manual. STANDARD CUTTING WARNING! Never stand directly in line with a spinning blade. Severe injury could result if a segment breaks off or the blade fractures. 1. Before starting any cut, make sure there is enough room to work without reaching beyond your area of control. Ensure there is enough hydraulic and water hose length to complete the cut without creating a safety hazard.
Chapter 5 TROUBLESHOOTING 1. If your saw does not operate properly, the following table may be used as a guide in diagnosing and eliminating the problem. If you cannot fix it using this table, call our service representative. 2. Before calling, be sure you can describe the problem clearly so our representative can help you. Have this manual at hand. TROUBLE Blade drive pressure fluctuates. CAUSE REMEDY Speed of motor is too low. Change to a smaller motor or increase GPM. Power unit is defective.
Chapter 6 MAINTENANCE Proper preventative maintenance is essential to ensure a long service life, minimize downtime for repair and provide for safe, efficient operation. We recommend the following service schedule. WARNING! Disconnect the power unit before servicing the saw. Ensure all line pressure is relieved prior to disconnecting the hoses. BEFORE EACH USE • Check all hydraulic hoses and connections. • Check for proper water flow. • Check blade guard liner and flanges for wear and damage.
