Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how to

use the wet tile saw.

1. READ and become familiar with this entire instruction manual. LEARN the

tool’s applications, limitations, and possible hazards.

2. AVOID DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. DO NOT use power tools in wet or

damp areas or expose them to rain. Keep work areas well-lit.

3. DO NOT use power tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.

4. ALWAYS keep your work area clean, uncluttered, and well-lit. DO NOT

work on floor surfaces that are slippery with sawdust or wax.

5. KEEP BYSTANDERS AT A SAFE DISTANCE FROM the work area,

especially when the tool is operating. NEVER allow children near the tool.

6. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL to do a job for which it was not designed.

7. DRESS FOR SAFETY. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or

jewellery (rings, watches, etc.) when operating tool. They can get caught

and draw you into moving parts. ALWAYS wear non-slip footwear, and tie

back long hair.

8. WEAR A FACE MASK OR DUST MASK. The sawing operation produces

dust.

9. ALWAYS remove the power cord plug from the electric outlet when

making adjustments, changing parts, cleaning or working on the tool.

10. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN WORKING ORDER.

11. AVOID ACCIDENTAL START-UPS. Make sure the power switch is in the

OFF position before plugging in the power cord.

SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

⁄ WARNING: TO AVOID MISTAKES THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS

INJURY, DO NOT PLUG IN THE WET TILE SAW UNTIL THE FOLLOWING

STEPS HAVE BEEN READ AND UNDERSTOOD.

II. General safety rules

MC_WetTileSaw 55-6829 E 3/17/05 4:53 PM Page 3

12. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

Wear oil-resistant, rubber-soled footwear. Keep floor clear of oil, scrap,

and other debris.

13. MAINTAIN TOOLS PROPERLY. ALWAYS keep tools clean and in good

working order. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing

accessories.

14. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Check for alignment of moving parts,

jamming, breakage, or any other conditions that may affect the tool’s

operation. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or

replaced before use.

15. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and

ALWAYS remove starter keys.

16. DO NOT operate tool if you are under the influence of any drugs, alcohol

or medication that could affect your ability to use the tool properly.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.

FLYING DEBRIS CAN GET into your eyes and could

cause permanent eye damage.

ALWAYS wear safety goggles (not glasses). Ordinary

eyeglasses have impact-resistant lenses...they ARE

NOT safety goggles.

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE WET TILE SAW UNTIL IT IS

FULLY ASSEMBLED, AND YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE

FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS AND THE WARNING LABELS ON THE

WET TILE SAW.

MC_WetTileSaw 55-6829 E 3/17/05 4:53 PM Page 4

1. CHECK FOR PROPER ASSEMBLY AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF

MOVING PARTS.

2. ALWAYS USE the blade guard assembly. 3.KNOW THE CONDITION OF

YOUR WET TILE SAW. If any part is missing, bent or does not operate

properly, replace the component before you continue to use the wet tile

saw.

4. Ensure that the wet tile saw is secured to a work surface to prevent the

wet tile saw from tipping or moving while in use.

5. DETERMINE THE TYPE OF WORK YOU ARE GOING TO BE DOING

before you operate the wet tile saw.

6. WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Use ear protection, plugs or muffs, during

extended periods of operation. Wear a face mask or dust mask when the

sawing operation produces dust.

7. NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION "FREE HAND," (using only your

hands to support the workpiece). Use the adjustable work fence to

position and guide the workpiece. NEVER perform any operation using

only your hands to support or guide the workpiece.

8. NEVER STAND or have any part of your body in line with the path of the

wet tile saw blade. Keep your hands out of the line of the saw blade.

9. NEVER REACH behind or over the cutting area.

10. FEED WORKPIECE INTO THE BLADE against the direction of rotation

only.

11. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED BLADE without first turning the

wet tile saw OFF. Turn off the power switch immediately to prevent motor

damage.

12. PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to the rear and sides of the wet tile

saw for wide or long workpieces.

13. Ensure the adjustable work fence is parallel to the blade at the front and

rear before use.

14. Never leave the wet tile saw running unattended. Do not leave the wet tile

saw until the blade comes to a complete stop.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding

provides the path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of

electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an

equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be

plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit in the outlet, have

the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result

in risk of electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or

without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or

replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the

equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.

CHECK with a qualified electrician or

service person if you do not completely

understand the grounding instructions, or if

you are not sure if the tool is properly

grounded.

USE ONLY 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORDS

that have 3-prong plugs and 3-prong

outlets that accept the tool's plug as shown

in Fig. A. Repair or replace damaged or

worn cord immediately.

CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is properly

grounded. If in doubt, have a certified electrician check the outlet.

To keep the appliance plug and outlet dry,

use a "drip loop" in the cord connecting the

saw to the outlet (Fig. B). The drip loop is

that part of the cord that is below the level

of the outlet or before the connector if an

extension cord is used. To create a drip

loop, allow the power cord to have a

sufficient amount of slack so that the power cord sags between the outlet and

the wet tile saw; if using an extension cord, raise connector using a chair, milk

crate, etc. Ensure that the cord is not touching the floor. The drip loop helps to

prevent water reaching the outlet. If the plug or receptacle gets wet, do not

unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to

the wet tile saw. Then unplug and examine for the presence of water. Ensure

that dripping water does not affect proper footing.

GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS

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. The table below shows the correct size to use

according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the

next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords (AWG)

(when using 120 V only)

Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition.

Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified

person before using it. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,

excessive heat and damp or wet areas.

Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit should not be less

than a #12 wire and should be protected with a 15 A time-delayed fuse.

Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the

OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current

stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the

motor.

PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
