INTRODUCTION 

 

Your RS17 RingSaw is a hydraulic direct drive saw that is a rugged versatile tool that cuts cleanly, fast, precisely, and 
straight through concrete, steel, stone, wood, composition material, or hard fiber when equipped with the appropriate 
abrasive, diamond, or carbide tipped blade.  The slim line design of the saw allows cuts to be made within inches of a wall 
or an obstruction.   The saw is equipped with an adjustable 180º blade guard, water hose connection port for wet cutting 
and 12-inch long hose whips.  An arbor wrench is provided for removing and installing blades.  As with most hydraulic 
tools, the hydraulic system requirements detailed in the following sections must be met but not exceeded to support tool 
performance and longevity of equipment. 
 
The following features are provided: 

12-inch hose whips 
Blade drive wheel 
Trigger actuated water supply 
Trigger lockout 
Ergonomic handle design
