WARNING: To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet,
position the wet tile saw to one side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water
from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. The user should arrange a “drip loop” in the
cord connecting the saw to a receptacle (Fig. S). The “drip loop” is that part of the cord
below the level of the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent
water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with thereceptacle. Always plug
the saw into a GFCI receptacle and test to confirm the GFCI is operatingproperly. 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 thereceptacle.
• To turn the wet tile saw on, lift up the on/off switch

.
• The wet tile saw locks onautomatically.
• To turn the tool off, push the on/off switchdown.
NOTE: A pad lock can be used on the switch to deter unauthorizeduse.

WARNING: When using the stand make sure to follow all the instructions and warnings
listed in the standmanual.
WARNING: When using large material ALWAYS make sure the pan stand bracket is being
used to keep the saw from tipping forward off thestand.
CAUTION: Tip Hazard. Excessive weight on the cart when the cart position knob is rotated
to position 1 could cause a tip hazard. Maximum tile size that can be cut is 36"x36"x3/8"
(90cm x 90cm x 1.0cm) (refer to Maximum Tile Size). Do not cut tile or other materials
that are thicker than 3/8" (1cm) thick while the cutting cart stop knob is in position 1.
When cutting narrow materials, rotate the cutting cart stop knob to position 2. This will
allow the cart to stay on the rail when pulled toward the user in front of the cuttingwheel.
1. Place stand (D24001, see Accessories) on a levelsurface.
2. Place the saw into the stand as shown in FigureR. The pan has two brackets

that wrap
around the front crossbar.
3. Rotate the pan stand bracket
