Intended Use

This wet tile saw is designed for professional cutting a variety of natural stone and porcelain

tiles and other tile typeapplications.

DO NOT cut wood, metal orplastic.

DO NOT use under wet conditions or in presence of flammable liquids orgases.

DO NOT let children come into contact with the tool. Supervision is required when

inexperienced operators use thistool.

• Always plug saw and pump into a GFCIreceptacle.

• Always plug extension cord into a GFCIreceptacle.

• Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are

identified by a marking “Acceptable for use with outdoor appliance; store indoors while

not in use.”

• Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of theproduct.

• Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace

ifdamaged.

• Do not abuse extension cords and do not yank on any cord todisconnect.

• Keep cord away from heat and sharpedges.

• Always disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the

product from the extensioncord.

Motor

Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. Voltage decrease of more than

10% will cause loss of power and overheating. These tools are factory tested; if this tool does

not operate, check powersupply.

Additional Safety Information



WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of it. Damage or personal injury

couldresult.



WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also

use face or dust mask if operation is dusty. ALL USERS AND BYSTANDERS MUST ALWAYS

WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETYEQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratoryprotection.



WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause

cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicalsare:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treatedlumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with

approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter

out microscopicparticles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,

and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas

with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may

promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.



WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious

and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory

protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face andbody.



WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to

ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from

this product may contribute to hearingloss.

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or

long hair can be caught in movingparts.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for

safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that

is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line

voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to

make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum

wire size. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and

nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge

number, the heavier thecord.

• DON’T - Use cutting wheels rated less than 5000 R.P.M.

• DON’T - Place hands closer than 3" (76 mm) from the cuttingwheel.

• DON’T - Reach behind or underneath the saw unless it is turned off andunplugged.

• DON’T - Move either hand from saw or workpiece until the cutting wheel hasstopped.

• SECURE WORK. Always place tile flat on cart and securely againstfence.

• NEVER USE A PAN HEATER OR OTHER HEAT SOURCE FOR HEATING WATER. Damage to the

tool, fire or personal injury could result."

• If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DON’T unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit

breaker that supplies power to the tool. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in

thereceptacle.
