Saw blade should be inspected daily for excessive wear, core
cracks, and arbor damage. Replace any blade that shows
signs of damage.
. To mount blade, clean arbor and outer flanges,
tightening nut securely.
. DO NOT place any portion of body in line with blade
while it is rotating.
. Wet cutting blades must be used with water.
. To reduce risk of electrical shock, we recommend the
use of GFCI and to refer servicing to a qualified
professional.
OUR COMPANY recommends the use of these Safety
Items when Operating the Saw:

• Never use the machine improperly or work in an unsafe manner.
• Always wear safety goggles, dust mask, and ear protection while operating
the saw (to comply with ANSI-Z87.1).
• Always remain alert when the saw is in use. Failure to pay attention on the
operator’s part may lead to serious injury.
• Before you start working, familiarize yourself with the work site and its
surroundings. Take notice of circumstances which may impede working or
traffic, observe soil conditions (good bearing or not), and take measures to
ensure safety (i.e. the shielding of roadworks from public traffic).
• Take measures to ensure that the machine is in a safe and trouble-free
condition prior to usage. Use the machine only when all protective devices
(i.e. guards, noise absorbers, emergency-off devices) are operating in the
intended locations.
• A visual check of the machine must be made at least once a shift to ensure
that visible damages or faults are recognized. Any changes (including
changes in the performance or behavior of the machine) must be reported
to the supervisor. If necessary, stop the machine at once and secure it.
• In the case of a malfunction stop the machine immediately and secure it.
Fix the problem as soon as possible.
• For starting and stopping the machine follow the operating instruction steps
and observe any indicator lights.
• Before switching the machine on make sure that the activated machine will
be of no danger to anyone.
• Be sure to connect the plug to a properly grounded receptacle to reduce the
risk of electric shock.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
.
Lead from lead based paints,
.
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
.
Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated are, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

damage.
WATER LEVEL TUBE
A tube at the rear end of
the saw filters the debris from the
water produced during the cutting
operation. Debris settles in the water
tray while the water is allowed to
pass through the tube and into the
water bucket, where fresh and filtered
water reside.
Remove the water level tube
from the plastic bag.
Inser t the thin end o f the
tube into the rea r hole

á The No. 884 Universal Tile
Guide is a two-piece
assembly consisting of a
template base and a
unique detachable ruler
guide. This permits any
cutting angle between 0
and 45 , with 22 and
30 clearly designated.
The ruler guide also
doubles as a measurement
tool to accurately measure
slabs up to a foot in length.
á The Universal Tile Guide
has a locking mechanism

WARNING:
!
Always lock the rip guide prior to transporting the saw.
1. After you have made
yourself familiar with the
components of your saw,
the machine has been
properly set up, the bucket
or water tray is filled with
water, and the electrical
connection is established in
accordance with the
relevant safety regulations,
you may now begin with the
cutting operation.
2. Before you start operation
open the water shut-off
valve.
5. After the cutting operation
is finished, prevent
accidental restarting of the
saw by pushing the
emergency stop from the
switch bracket and
unplugging the power
cable.
3. During the operation, the
user must stand in front side
of the saw, holding the
handle of the swivel-joint
cutting head with his left
hand. The workpiece must
rest on the work table and
should be pressed tightly
against the side and limit
stops with the right hand.
4. Always turn off the saw
before you leave the
machine unattended.
When cutting at constant depth
the cutting head must be pulled
against the workpiece.
1. Before you start cutting, set
the cutting head at the
desired fixed cutting depth.
2. Then use the handle to pull
the cutting head slowly and
uniformly along the guide
rail and across the
workpiece.
3. Push the cutting head fully
back after you finished the
cut.
The handling of larger cutting
depths can be simplified using
the plunge cutting method.
1. In this case, the cutting head
will not be set to a fixed
position while performing
the cut.
2. As you have not fixed the
saw at a defined depth,
Cutting at Constant Depth
Plunge Cuts
The cutting head is freely
movable during seesaw
operations.
3. Hold the handle of the
cutting head with your left
hand and move it to and fro
across the workpiece while
lightly pressing the cutting
head downwards in a
discontinuos movement.
