HELP, DIY granite cutting

hi all
we have quite an old apartment about 15 years, the cooktop glasstop shattered the other day and i dont think we can get spare part (the brand is chef), so we are thinking of getting a new one. However the cut out is a wierd size its 615x450, so we need to get 700mm cooktop and need to cut the benchtop. Our benchtop is granite and my handy husband said he can cut it himself since he has the right tools with that diamond blade (i dont even know the name of the tools). Now, i'm a bit worried if the granite might crack. What are the chances of the granite cracking? and whats the best way to do it?and does anyone knows if cooktop is covered by building or content cover? Thanks all...
