PAGE 12 — TP24 TILE SAW • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #2 (04/12/12)
GENERAL INFORMATION
The TP24 is a powerful, robust saw designed to
professionally handle large-sized cuts on ceramics, stone,
and masonry materials. A sturdy steel precision frame and
easily removable ABS water tray provides overall durability
and longevity.
This saw is equipped with a trusted high-torque 2 HP
electric motor that operates on standard 115 V power and is
designed with thermal overload and fan air cover protection.
An innovative water-cooled bearing assembly works in
conjunction with the water pump to keep key bearing
components running cooler.
The TP24 saw comes complete with premium blade and
high flow water pump.
DRY CUTTING APPLICATIONS
The TP24 tile saw is shipped from the factory for wet-cutting
saw applications, however it can be used for dry-cutting
saw applications. The most import thing to remember is to
disconnect the water pump. The water pump is cooled by
the flow of water, and failure to disconnect the pump (when
running dry) will cause pump failure.
BLADE APPLICATIONS
This saw has been designed to incorporate the use
of diamond blades as the cutting tool. The optimum
performance of this saw is best evidenced by using 10-inch
(254 mm) diamond blades that match the material being
cut. Ask your dealer, or call Multiquip about your specific
cutting application.
NOTICE
NEVER have the water pump engaged when dry cutting
applications are involved.
ACCESSORIES/REPLACEMENT PARTS
If desired, the TP24 tile saw can be equipped with a support
stand with wheels. This stand is ideal when the saw needs
to be placed on a secure reliable platform.
