3.
1.
2.
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark work areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the pres­ence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is prop­erly grounded. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the
risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when oper­ating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

3.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear an ANSI approved full face shield and non-skid safety shoes. ANSI approved hearing and breathing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support a smaller workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be replaced.

8.
Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean. Properly maintained tools are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until re­paired.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous
when used on another tool.

GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electroncution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plug with wet hands. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet)s) to be used for the tile saw (GFCI is not included in this machinery). Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)

Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord.
As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a seri­ous drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.
(See Figure B, next page.)
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
(See Figure B.)
When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Figure B.)
If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate am- peres and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.
(See Figure B.)
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified electri­cian before using it.

DRIP LOOP
13.
Always arrange a “drip loop” in the Power Cord connecting the Tile Saw to a 120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet. A drip loop is that part of the Power Cord
below the level of the outlet, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to pre­vent water traveling along the Power Cord and coming in contact with the outlet. If the Power Plug or electrical outlet does get wet, do not unplug the Power Cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the tool. Then, unplug and examine for presence of water in the outlet. (See Figure C.)
14.
Use cold water only. Never use hot water. Using hot water can damage the Pump seals.
15.
Never run the Tile Saw without a water supply. Running the unit without a water supply will cause irreparable damage to the Pump.
16.
Make sure the water supply used for the Tile Saw is not dirty, sandy, and does not contain any corrosive chemical products.
17.
Make sure to change the water when necessary while in use and rinse out the Tub after every use.
FIGURE C
18.
Never leave the Tile Saw unattended when it is plugged into an electrical outlet.
Turn off the Tile Saw, and unplug it from its electrical outlet.
19.
Always keep the water level at the recommended level. Fill the Tank with enough water so that the Pump is about 3/4 completely submerged, but not so much water that the Tank overflows.
20.
Avoid splashing water on the Motor, Power Switch, Power Cord, or any other electrical component. Make sure to stand on a dry, insulated surface such as a
rubber mat while using the Tile Saw.
21.
To avoid accidental injury, always wear heavy duty work gloves when changing the Saw Blade. Before using the Tile Saw, make sure the Saw Blade is properly
mounted on the Saw Spindle. Make sure the Saw Blade is balanced, and is not cracked or bent.

Allow the Saw Blade to spin up to full speed before feeding a workpiece into it. When turning off the Tile Saw, allow the Saw Blade to spin down and stop on its
own. Do not press against the Saw Blade to stop it.
Do not force the workpiece into the Saw Blade when cutting. Apply moder-ate pressure, allowing the Saw Blade to cut without being forced.
Turn off the Tile Saw and allow the Saw Blade to stop on its own if the Saw Blade is to be backed out of an uncompleted cut.
Never attempt to remove material stuck in the moving parts of the Tile Saw while it is plugged in and running.
When cutting a large workpiece make sure its entire length is properly sup­ported. If necessary, use a roller stand (not included) with larger work pieces.
Never stand on the Tile Saw. Serious injury could result if the Tile Saw is tipped
or if the rotating Saw Blade is accidently contacted.
Industrial applications must follow OSHA requirements.
For your safety: In extreme working conditions, sensors in the Tile Saw will automatically switch off the Motor to prevent overheating. In this event, turn
the Power Switch to its “OFF” position. Wait five minutes or until the Motor has cooled. Making sure your hands are dry, depress the Circuit Breaker. Then, turn the Power Switch to its “ON” position to resume cutting. NEVER attempt to dis-
able the Circuit Breaker.

Never attempt to cut more than one tile at a time.
Never attempt to cut freehand. Make sure the tile to be cut is pressed firmly
against the Rip Fence.
Never cut pieces too small to be held securely against the Rip Fence with­out leaving enough space for the hand to be a safe distance from the Saw Blade.
Make sure the tile to be cut off has sufficient room to move sideways. Failure
to do so may result in the tile binding against the Saw Blade.
Make sure the Table and surrounding area are clear with the exception of the tile to be cut.
Always turn off the Tile Saw and unplug it from its electrical outlet before changing accessories or performing any inspection, maintenance, or clean­ing procedures.

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch (37) of the Tile Saw is in its “OFF” position and that the unit is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Tile Saw. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, damaged electrical wiring, dam­aged Hoses, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not
use damaged equipment.
Before each use, inspect the Saw Blade (4). Using a dull Saw Blade will cause
excessive wear on the Motor, and will not produce a satisfactory cut. Replace with a new Saw Blade when needed.
Before each use, inspect the mounting Screws on all Safety Covers and the Arbor Nut (6) on the Motor Arbor. If necessary, retighten all loose hardware.
After each use, immediately clean the Water Pump (7) to keep dried debris from sticking to the Filter (7B) and Impeller which will obstruct the water flow. To clean the Water Pump, remove the Outer Cover (7A). Remove the Filter (7B). Then, remove the Inner Cover (7C) to expose the Impeller. Use a small brush and clean water to remove any debris on the Filter and Impeller. If necessary, replace the old Filter with a new Filter. When finished, replace the Inner Cover, Filter, and Outer Cover. (See Assy. Diagram.)

If the Water Pump (7) should fail, first try cleaning the Filter (7B) and Impeller of debris to make sure they are not plugged (see Step #5 above). If the Water Pump still does not operate properly, the Pump must be replaced. (See Assy. Diagram.)
To replace the Water Pump (7), remove the Water Tray (67). Locate the Pump Plug Cover (118) on the inner left side of the Frame. Unscrew and remove the Knob 119, Spring Washer (95), Washer (102), and Lock Nut (107) from the Pump Plug Cover. Remove the Pump Plug Cover to expose the Pump Cable (117). Disconnect the Pump Cable from the Water Pump. Next, disconnect the Pump Connector (115) from the Water Pump. Then, remove the old Water Pump. Install the new Water Pump, following the previously mentioned Steps in reverse order. (See Assy. Diagram.)
To clean the exterior parts: Use only a clean cloth and mild detergent to clean the body of the Tile Saw. Use a vacuum or compressed air to clean the Motor (1) ventilation slots. Do not immerse any electrical part of the tool in liquid.
When storing, always completely empty the Tile Saw of water. Frost will damage the Pump if the unit contains water. Store the Tile Saw indoors in a dry, frost-free room.
