5 GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Keep safety warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the safety warnings refers to your mains­operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
5.1 Working area
Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to accidents.. Do not operate power tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example, in the
presence of inflammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes..
Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control of it.
5.2 Electrical safety
Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of an electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of an electric shock if your body is earthed.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets inside a power tool, it will
increase the risk of an electric shock.
Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of an electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable suitable for outdoor use.
Using a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of an electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a power supply protected
by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of an electric shock.
5.3 Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when operating a power tool may result in serious personal injury.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.
Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting the plug.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools when the switch is in the on position makes accidents more likely.
Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the power tool. A spanner or
key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all times. This will enable
you retain control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts..
If there are devices for connecting dust extraction and collection facilities, please ensure
that they are attached and used correctly. Using such devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

5.4 Power tool use and care
Do not expect the power tool to do more than it can. Use the correct power tool for what
you want to do. A power tool will achieve better results and be safer if used in the context for which it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool with a
broken switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow people
who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate it. Power tools are potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, breakages or any
other feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is damaged, the power tool must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work which needs to be done. Using a power tool in ways for which it was not intended can lead to potentially hazardous situations.
5.5 Service
Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare
parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.
6 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR TILE CUTTERS
Make sure that the cutting disc is correctly screened by the guard. Never remove the riving knife. The distance between the cutting disc and the riving knife
should not exceed 5 mm.
Do not use cutting discs which are bent, deformed or otherwise damaged. Do not use cutting discs which do not comply with the specifications stated in this manual. Never start cutting tiles before the machine reaches full speed. Never attempt to cut extremely small workpieces. Do not leave the work area until the machine has been switched off and the cutting disc
has come to a complete standstill.
Never attempt to stop the cutting disc by exerting pressure on the side of the disc. Always unplug the machine before performing any maintenance. Do not use the machine before it has been completely assembled and installed according
to the instructions.
Do not perform any design, assembly or Construction activities on the table while the
machine is switched on.
Unplug the machine and clean the table before leaving the work area.
6.1 Power supply
This tile saw must be connected to an earthed 230V - 50Hz power source. This power source must be secured by a 16A fuse. Your machine is supplied with a 30mA residual current device to protect the user against
electric shock.
It can only protect you when the power mains to which the tool is plugged is properly
grounded.
Have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Copyright © 2015 VARO P a g e | 5 www.varo.com
Page 6
POW7490 EN
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
6.2 Diamond blades
Only use 180mm diameter Continuous Rim Wet Diamond blades. DO NOT use larger, segmented or 'turbo' blades, wood sawing blades, or any other
cutting device. Severe bodily injury, and damage to your saw can occur.
Inspect blades daily for cracks or uneven wear. Discard cracked, chipped or bent blades! Ensure the blade is mounted with the rotation arrow in the proper direction and is securely
tightened with a wrench.
Always ensure a continuous flow of water on both sides of the blade before cutting any
material.
Do not operate the machine without all safety guards in position Do not force the material into the blade. Let the blade cut at its own speed.
7 ASSEMBLY
ATTENTION! Disconnect the power plug before carrying out any adjustments or maintenance.
7.1 Mounting the riving knife (fig. 1)
Unscrew the two (crosshead) screws and place the foot of the riving knife under the table. Place the small plate (2 holes with thread) under the foot of the riving knife Connect the riving knife with the two screws and the plate
7.2 Mounting the cutting disc (fig. 2 & 3)

the table.
Set the required distance. Tighten the knobs by rotating them (clockwise). Place the water reservoir (4) under the table
8 OPERATION
The tile cutter may only be used as a fixed tool and should be screwed down to a level
and horizontal surface.
Use the screw holes in the base of the machine. Keep water full in the tank when you operate the cutter.
