Diamond Products CC21 - Manual (Page 4)

• 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. If you are unsure, contact
the manufacturer or Diamond Products.
• Verify that the saw is operating properly before cutting.
• Never operate the saw without sufficient water flow to cool the blade and flush out
cutting debris.
• Always disconnect the power unit before servicing the saw.
• Never try to connect or disconnect the power unit while the power unit is running
and/or the hoses are under pressure.
• Before cutting, be sure that there are no electric, water, or gas lines in the area you
are working. Do not saw if you are unsure of the presence of utility lines in the work
area.
• Keep both hands on the saw while it is in operation.
CUTTING/WORK AREA SAFETY
• Never operate the saw in any application or job where you are not properly trained or
supervised.
• Operate gas/diesel power packs only in well-ventilated areas.
• Place barricades or tape to block off the work area. Keep bystanders, animals, and
unnecessary equipment out the work area.
• Do not operate the saw near combustible material or fumes. Sparks occur during
sawing that may cause a fire or explosion.
