To adjust the rollers: loosen the set screw, rotate the roller assembly with a 1-1/2”
wrench until the roller is in contact with the track, then tighten the set screw. If the
rollers are too loose, the saw will not cut smoothly and may jam the blade. If a roller is
adjusted too tight, it will be difficult to pull out when removing the saw.
To adjust the slides: loosen the set screw, turn the adjusting shaft with a 1/2” wrench
until the slide is in contact with the track, then tighten the set screw.
WARNING!
Never try to connect or disconnect the hoses while the
power unit is running and/or the hoses are under
pressure.
5. Connect the hydraulic lines to the blade drive motor and travel motors (if used)
and the water line to the blade guard support.
6. Run the saw along the track and rotate the arm through a complete circle before
mounting the blade to be sure the setup is correct.
7. Check the hydraulic and water lines while doing this to be sure they will not
interfere with travel or be cut by the blade.
8. Before mounting the blade, be sure the blade shaft turns clockwise (looking
toward the saw at the blade). Incorrect blade rotation will cause increased wear,
damage the blade, and may blow out motor seals.
9. Select the correct blade, based on the depth to cut and the stage of cutting. (See
Table 2) Walls over 15” thick will need more than one blade, a starting blade up to
∅36” to start the cut and one or more larger blades to complete the cut.
10. Check blade speed, either with a shaft tachometer or by checking the hydraulic
fluid GPM rate and comparing it to Table 1 on page 6. Do not exceed the rated
blade speed.
11. The CC1600 wall saw can take a blade of ∅36” or less out of the cut. To use a
larger blade, you must first make a cut with a ∅36” or smaller blade.
MOUNTING A STANDARD BLADE
1. Be sure you have the correct diamond wall saw blade. Using a blade not
manufactured for wall saw use could result in serious bodily injury.
2. Inspect the flanges and clean or replace if necessary. Inspect the blade for damage
to the arbor hole before mounting the blade.
3. Place the blade over the arbor on the inner flange. Be sure the blade is mounted
correctly. The “tails” behind the diamonds should point opposite the blade
rotation. Reversing the blade will cause higher blade wear.
4. Place the outer flange over the arbor, making sure the waterways are clear.
5. Tighten the flange nut to lock the blade in place. (NOTE: This is a left-hand nut.)
