out notice and without incurring any obligation.
The U.S.SAWS CC-100 is a gas powered crack chasing saw that is designed
to rout out random cracks in concrete and asphalt surfaces prior to lling
with a repair product or sealant. The CC-100 is intended to be used on
parking garages, runways and large open warehouses. The CC-100 will cut
up to 1” deep and up to ½” wide. Always operate this machine in a well
ventilated area, as it emits carbon monoxide fumes, which are colorless
and odorless and can kill. Read this manual in it’s entirety prior to operat-
ing the machine and make sure to follow all safety regulations. Since safety
regulations vary between different countries and states, you must contact
the proper authorities and follow all appropriate regulations.

DUST WARNING
Cutting, especially when DRY cutting, generates dust that comes
from the material being cut, which frequently contains silica.
Silica is a basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and
numerous other minerals and rocks. Exposure to excessive amount of
such dust can cause:
• Respiratory diseases (affecting your ability to breath), including
chronic bronchitis, silicosis and pulmonary brosis from exposure
to silica. These diseases may be fatal;
• Skin irritation and rash; and
• Cancer according to NTP* and IARC*
* National Toxicology Program, International Agency for Research
on Cancer
Take precautionary steps
• Avoid inhalation of and skin contact with dust, mist and fumes;
• Wet cut when feasible, to minimize dust;
• Wear and ensure that all bystanders wear appropriate respiratory
protection such as dust masks designed to lter out microscopic
particles. (See OSHA 29 CFR Part 1910.1200)
California Prop 65 Warning: Use of this product can cause exposure to
materials known to the State of California to cause cancer and/or birth
defects or other reproductive harm.

CAUTION: The blade depth is approximate and not exact. Many vari-
ables affect the exact blade depth such as the exact diameter of a worn
diamond blade. If an accurate depth must be cut, install the blade to be
used with the engine in the OFF position. Place the CC-100 in a secure
position that allows the blade to overhang and be visibly measured at
full blade depth. An example would be blocking the wheels with the
engine in the OFF position and lowering the blade along side a street
curb. This will allow a measurement from the bottom of the blade to the
top of the curb.
WARNING: Breathable silica may be generated by use of this product.
Silica can cause severe and permanent lung damage, cancer, and other
serious diseases. Do not breath the dust. Do not rely on your sight
or smell to determine if the dust is in the air. Silica may be in the air
without a visible dust cloud. If air monitoring equipment for silica is not
provided by your employer at your work site, you MUST wear appropriate
respiratory protection when using or servicing the machine. Consult your
employer and OSHA regarding the appropriate respiratory protection.

OPERATION
6.1.3 Place one wrench on the drive ange to hold the blade shaft in
place. Place the other wrench on the blade nut and turn counter-clockwise to
loosen the nut.
6.1.4 Unscrew the blade nut. Slide the outer ange, spacers and blade off
the shaft.
6.1.5 Replace blade, spacers, and outer ange. Outer ange pin must line
up with all spacers and drive ange to t through properly.
WARNING: Be sure that the anges, and blade are clean and undamaged
before mounting. Do not use damaged parts. The CC-100 maximum blade
operating speed is 7500 rpm as labeled on the blade guard. The CC-100 shaft
diameter is 1 inch. Therefore, only use dry cut diamond blades rated for higher
than 7500 rpm maximum safe speed and designed for 1-inch diameter shafts.
Using a non dry cut diamond blade or a blade rated below 7500 rpm could
result in severe blade failure, personal injury or death. See Figure 28 and Fig-
ure 29. Never cut material for which the blade was not designed. Check blade
manufacturer’s guidelines on material to be cut. Never operate a blade in the
wrong rotation direction. Verify blade direction when changing blades.
6.1.6 Screw on and tighten the blade nut with wrenches making sure the
face is at against the outer ange. The blade shaft should be ush or slightly
stick out beyond the blade nut to ensure all the blade nut threads are en-
gaged. The outer ange pin should not touch the CC-100 chassis and 1/2” hex
bolts when rotating. Rotate blade by hand to verify proper clearance and that
the blade runs true (without wobbling). See Figure 30 and Figure 31. Never
use a blade with interference or that does not run true.
6.1.7 Always run a CC-100 with the blade guard in the down position.
WARNING: Breathable silica may be generated by use of this product; Silica
can cause severe and permanent lung damage, cancer, and other serious dis-
eases. Do not breath the dust. Do not rely on your sight or smell to determine
if the dust is in the air. Silica may be in the air without a visible dust cloud. If
air monitoring equipment for silica is not provided by your employer at your
worksite, you MUST wear appropriate respiratory protection when using or ser-
vicing the machine. Consult your employer and OSHA regarding the appropriate
respiratory protection.
6.2 Adjusting dust brush height and 2 inch blade guard caster wheel
6.2.1 The dust brush should rmly touch the ground to prevent excessive
dust from escaping into the surrounding work area.
8
6.2.2 With engine in the OFF position, loosen the 3/8-inch hex nut by turn-
ing it clockwise. Then turn the caster adjustment nut counterclockwise to lower
the dust brush or clockwise to raise the dust brush.
6.2.3 With the dust brush in the desired position, tighten the 3/8-inch hex
nut by turning it counterclockwise.
6.3 Checking and adjusting belt tension
6.3.1 The belt tension should be checked after the rst hour of operation
on a new CC-100 or new belt. On a used CC-100, the belt tension should be
checked once a day. With engine in the OFF position, remove the four 5/16”
hex bolts that attach the belt guard to the chassis.
6.3.2 Remove the belt guard. The belt should deect no more than 1/16”
under moderate nger pressure equidistant between the sheaves.
6.3.3 To tighten the belt, loosen the four 5/16” hex nuts that hold the
Honda engine to the chassis. Then, turn the 3/8” hex head bolt clockwise on
the front of the CC-100.
6.3.4 After reaching the desired belt tension, verify that the belt sheaves
are properly aligned and the belt is straight. Retighten the four 5/16” hex nuts
that hold the engine against the chassis.
6.3.5 Replace the belt guard with the four 5/16” hex bolts that were
removed in step 6.3.1. Never run a CC-100 without the belt guard in place.
6.4 Bearing lubrication
6.4.1 With engine in the OFF position, slowly tilt the CC-100 back until the
handle rests on the ground.
6.4.2 These bearings are exposed to excessive dust and require the
same brand of high quality grease as supplied by the factory. Apply ALVANIA®
Grease 3 with a hand grease gun to both anged bearings on the blade shaft
after every 100 hours of use.
6.4.3 The performance of the bearing is greatly inuenced by the quantity
of grease. For optimum performance, insert grease until a little bleeds out
from between the outer ring raceway and the perimeter of the slinger. Wipe off
excess grease.
6.4.4 Slowly tilt the CC-100 forward until all wheels are back on the work
surface.
