The Diamond Products CC300M Electric Masonry Saw is a professional-grade, ultra-efficient workstation designed for cutting brick, block, pavers, and masonry materials with impeccable precision and reliability. Famed throughout the construction and masonry industries for its value, performance, and rugged build, the CC300M makes high-volume, clean cuts accessible on jobsites large and small—offering a serious upgrade over traditional handheld saws or less robust tile saws.

Product Overview

The CC300M is purpose-built for heavy-duty, professional use. Its powerful 2 HP electric motor (operating on a standard 115V, 15 amp, single-phase supply) easily drives a 14” diamond blade, letting users cut cleanly up to 5 inches deep and up to 16 inches long in a single pass. The machine’s compact design and tough, powder-coated steel frame offer portability and stability, while its smooth sliding cutting table and pull-down cutting head maximize both accuracy and operator safety.

Key Features and Benefits

• 2 HP, 115V Motor: Delivers robust torque and reliable starts from any common job site or residential power source. The 15-amp draw is safe for most circuits.

• 14” Diamond Blade Capacity: Cuts masonry materials up to 5” deep and 16” long, with ample clearance for 8” x 8” x 16” blocks—ideal for most brick, block, and paver projects.

• Durable Construction: The reinforced steel frame resists vibration and warping, ensuring years of problem-free service in demanding conditions.

• Smooth Sliding Table: Provides high accuracy for straight, repeatable cuts. The tray glides on precision rails, supporting even the largest blocks with confidence.

• Pull-Down Cutting Head: Operator pulls the blade down into the material, which enhances control and cutting precision while reducing operator fatigue and dust spread.

• Tool-Free Air Filter Replacement: Easy-maintenance foam filter system dramatically extends motor life and reduces downtime. Two spare filters are included in the kit.

• Optional Wet Cut Kit: Water-cooled blade setup with pump and reservoir reduces airborne dust, extends blade life, and improves cut quality—especially valuable for indoor or dust-regulated environments.

• Open-Back Frame Design: Enables cutting of longer materials; perfect for rip cuts and other non-standard masonry tasks.

Technical Specifications

Productivity and Performance

• Cost Efficiency: The CC300M is widely praised as “the most cost-efficient way to cut masonry,” virtually eliminating wasteful hand labor and supporting rapid, accurate production for block walls, patios, retaining features, and hardscape jobs.

• Professional Versatility: Designed to handle clay and concrete bricks, blocks, pavers, and various stone; the easily adjustable material carriage and blade height let users make repeatable miter cuts or deep notch cuts for a custom finish.

• Portable Power: At 85 pounds and with integrated side handles, the CC300M is portable enough to move on- and off-site without special lifting gear—helping contractors maximize equipment utilization and minimize setup time.

• Accuracy and Safety: Smooth cutting action and robust tray with vulcanized non-slip surface ensure safe control throughout the cut. Open-back frame allows for extended rip cuts, and removable cutting head and stay-level blade guard simplify both operation and maintenance.

Setup, Operation & Maintenance

• Setup: Quick assembly out of the box. Place the saw on a level surface; install blade (not included); connect to a 15-amp, 115V power outlet. Optional: mount the folding stand or attach the wet cut kit if required.

• Operation: Place masonry material on the tray, align for cut, power up, and gently pull down on the head to bring the spinning blade through the workpiece in a controlled motion. For wet cutting, ensure the water pump is running before the cut.

• Maintenance: Replace or clean air filter regularly (tool-free change). Inspect power cord, tray rails, and blade guard for debris or wear; replace worn blades as needed. Drain the water tray after wet use.

Accessories and Options

• Folding Stand: Provides ergonomic working height and stable platform (optional).

• Wet Cut Kit: Includes water pump, reservoir, and tubing for on-board dust control (optional but recommended for compliance and blade longevity).

• Rip and Miter Guides: Available for repetitive or angled cuts.

• Extra Air Filters: Ensure safe, extended motor use.

User Reviews and Industry Feedback

• Reliable: Tradespeople and small business owners rate the CC300M’s durability and consistent performance as industry-leading for its price point. The strong motor and precise table draw positive comments from masonry professionals who rely on day-in, day-out use.

• Easy Maintenance: The tool-free air filter access, included spares, and straightforward assembly are deemed “great practical features” for busy contractors.

• Value: Reviewers highlight the CC300M’s balance of affordability, professional-grade power, and portable design as a main reason for its popularity in tool rental fleets and small contractor shops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What materials can be cut with the CC300M?
A: Bricks, blocks, clay units, pavers, some stone, and other masonry products.

Q: Does it require a dedicated circuit?
A: It requires a 115V/15A outlet; most homes or jobsites support this, but avoid running other high-draw tools on the same circuit while cutting.

Q: Can it wet cut and dry cut?
A: Yes—with the optional wet cut kit for dust control and blade cooling, or dry for basic jobs.

Q: Is the blade included?
A: No. Users must supply the appropriate 14” diamond blade for specific material needs.
