Use a proper battery tester, such as a
voltmeter, to test the battery
strength.
Use protective eyewear or a face
shield, and avoid contact with the
skin when handling a battery.
The saw contains a charged battery with one
positive battery cable lead and one negative battery
cable lead.
Diamond Blades
WARNING
DO NOT exceed the blade’s
maximum recommended speed when
cutting. Excessive blade speeds can
cause blade breakage, resulting in serious injuries
and/or death.
Using the proper blade (size and type) preserves
the blade and improves cutting and operator
efficiency, resulting in lower costs. Refer to
www.diamondproducts.com for a list of different
blade types and additional blade information.
Inspecting the Blade
Inspect each blade prior to installation and discard
all damaged blades. Inspect all blades for:
•Cracks, nicks, and dents.
•A damaged and/or deformed arbor (center
hole).
•Darkness and/or discoloration near edge of
blade.
•A deformed blade circumference.
•Segment loss and/or segment cracks.
•Core wear.
•Bending.
•Uneven side-widths.

Blade Speed
Refer to the CC6571 or CC6571-3 RPM Chart, the
blade, or the blade packaging information for the
recommended blade speeds when cutting. DO
NOT exceed the maximum recommended blade
speed. DO NOT use a blade for cutting that
requires a lower speed than the minimum blade
shaft speed.
Figure 9: CC6571 RPM Chart
Figure 10: CC6571-3 RPM Chart
Installing the Blade
WARNING
DO NOT install a blade with the
engine running.
Failure to properly secure the outer
flange and blade may cause parts to loosen or
fall off of the saw.
CAUTION
Wear gloves and be alert to the surrounding
environment when handling blades.
UWrench
Use the 15/16” combination wrench that comes
with the saw when installing/removing a blade.
Apply force to the opposite end of the wrench and
tighten the bolt to 125 ft-lb (169.5 Nm) to properly
secure the outer flange and blade. This
measurement can be verified with a torque wrench.
Figure 11: Wrench
Install the blade on either the right or left side of the
saw; utilize the most appropriate side for the cutting
task. Adjust the engine governor setting, as
necessary, and install the appropriate blade shaft
sheave, blade drive belts, and flanges when
changing the blade size. Changing the blade
shaft sheave requires assistance from technical
support. Contact technical support prior to
running the saw. Refer to the RPM Chart posted
on the saw, or in the Diamond Products’ Parts List
for additional information.
a. Remove the blade guard or pivot the front of the
guard 180° (fully upward) to gain access to the
blade flanges. Secure with pin.

b. Remove the blade shaft bolt using the wrench.
Turn the bolt clockwise (left-hand threads) on
the right side of the saw, and counterclockwise
(right-hand threads) on the left side of the saw.
c. Remove the bolt and wedge lock washer, and
carefully pull the outer flange out of the inner
flange alignment pin hole and blade shaft.
Figure 13: Blade Flanges Separated
d. Inspect the bolt, outer flange, inner flange, and
inner flange alignment pin hole for visible
damages and clean, repair, or replace or as
necessary.
e. Select the correct blade type for the cutting task
and inspect the blade for visible damages.
f. Raise the saw slightly to provide room to install
the blade.
g. Place the blade next to the inner flange. Always
point the arrow printed on the blade in the
direction of the blade shaft’s rotation when
installing the blade.
h. Align and fit the outer flange alignment pin and
shaft through the blade holes, and into the
blade shaft and inner flange alignment pin hole.
Figure 14: Inserting the Outer Flange
i. Slightly rotate the outer flange and blade
backward to eliminate backlash (looseness)
between parts.
j. Place the wedge lock washer onto the blade
shaft bolt and insert the bolt into the blade
shaft.
k. Tighten the bolt by hand as much as possible,
and slowly lower the blade until it just touches
the ground’s surface.
l. Tighten the bolt, using the wrench, to 125 ft-lb
(169.5 Nm) to properly secure the outer flange
and blade. This measurement can be verified
with a torque wrench.
Figure 15: Tightening the Bolt
m. Reattach the blade guard or pivot the front of
the guard down and over the blade to secure.
Removing the Blade
CAUTION
Always let the blade cool prior to
removing or replacing blades when
dry cutting.
a. Remove the blade guard or pivot the front of the
guard 180° (fully upward, secure with pin) to
gain access to the blade flanges.
b. Slowly lower the blade until it just touches the
ground’s surface.
c. Remove the blade shaft bolt and wedge lock
washer from the blade shaft.
d. Carefully pull the outer flange out of the inner
flange alignment pin hole and blade shaft, and
then remove the blade. Place the blade in the
appropriate storage location.
e. Inspect the bolt, outer flange, inner flange, and
inner flange alignment pin hole for visible

f. Align and fit the outer flange alignment pin and
shaft into the blade shaft and inner flange
alignment pin hole.
g. Place the wedge lock washer onto the blade
shaft bolt and insert the bolt into the blade
shaft.
h. Tighten the bolt by hand to secure the inner and
outer flange together.
i. Reattach the blade guard or pivot the front of
the guard down and over the blade to secure.
Blade Guard
WARNING
DO NOT operate the saw with the blade guard
raised or removed.
DO NOT remove the blade guard with the engine
running.
Blade exposure when cutting should not exceed
180°.
Always pivot the front of the blade guard 180° (fully
upward) and secure with pin so the guard does not
swing down unexpectedly, causing serious injuries.
The blade guard shields the blade and must always
be in place when operating the saw. Be sure to use
a guard that matches the blade size.
Installing the Blade Guard
a. Regularly inspect the blade guard water tubes
for cuts, slurry, and/or debris. Clean them using
a wire brush or replace the tubes as necessary.
b. Place the tapered mount from one side of the
blade guard down onto the tapered blade guard
mount on the frame base.
