The commands you describe build off of a residue template defined from
the topology file. Since those templates contain hydrogens, the
resulting structure must also have hydrogens.
If you do not want hydrogens, then use a template that does not include
them. I don't have any experience with united atom force fields in RTF
format, but I would not be surprised if they exist.
Cheers,
Brian
