1
. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
2. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS & WRENCHES. Before turning on the tile saw, make sure the keys and adjusting
wrenches have been removed.
3. KEEPWORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
4. ALWAYS REMAIN ALERTWHEN THE SAW IS IN USE. Inattention on the part of the operator may lead to
serious injury.
5. DON’T USE IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose
them to rain. Keep work area well lit.
6. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should remain at a safe distance from work area.
7. MAKEWORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.
8. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force a tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
9. USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table (see Table 1) shows
the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
10. DON’T FORCETHETOOL. It has been designed to operate at maximum safety and performance levels.
11. DO NOT FORCETHE MATERIAL BEING CUT. Always let the blade cut at its own speed.
12. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, rings, bracelets or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Non-slip foot wear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering if you have
long hair.
13. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask for commercial cutting operations. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact-resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
14. SECUREWORK. Use clamps or a vise instead of your hand to hold work when practical. This safety
precaution allows for proper tool operation using both hands.
15. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

unintentionally contacted.
23. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, damaged part(s), (i.e., guard) should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other condition that may affect
the saw’s operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
24. ENSURETHATTHERE IS A CONTINUOUS FLOW OF WATER to both sides of blade during operation.
25. CHECK DIAMOND BLADES CAREFULLY FOR CRACKS, NICKS, MISSING DIAMOND MATRIX OR
OUT-OF-ALIGNMENT CONDITION. Replace damaged blades immediately. DO NOT USE DAMAGED BLADES.
They may cause bodily injury.
26. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into the blade against the direction of rotation of the blade only.
27. DO NOT ALTER THE PLUG OR USE A 2-PRONG RECEPTACLE. This saw is equipped with a 3-prong
electrical plug.
