GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow all instructions may result
in electric shock, fire and serious injury. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of elec-
tric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
6. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) pro-
tected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power
tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
4. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
5. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/
or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
5. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any ad-
justments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
6. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
7. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
8. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will en-
sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may contain
chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.
• 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 expo-
sure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area with approved safety equipment such as dust masks spe-
cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

AMPERAGE REQUIRED GAUGE FOR EXTENSION CORDS
25 ft. 50 ft. 100 ft. 150 ft.
6.5A 18 gauge 16 gauge 14 gauge 12 gauge
1. Examine extension cord before use. 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.
2. Do not abuse extension cord. Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect by pulling
on plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension
cord. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
3. Use a separate electrical circuit for your tool. This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge wire and should be
protected with a 15A 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. Run-
ning at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
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 be used according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier
cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. In
the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides the path of least resistance for an electric current and
reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
1. Use only three-wire extension cords that have three-pronged plugs and
outlets that accept the tool’s plug as shown in Fig. A. Do not modify the plug
provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a li-
censed electrician.
2. Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in
electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yel-
low 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.
3. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
CAUTION: Check with a licensed electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the
grounding instructions or whether the tool is properly grounded.

CUTTING WHEEL SAFETY
1. Use only diamond cutting wheels that are rated above the maximum spindle speed of the tool (3450 RPM) and
are appropriate for the material being cut.
2. Use cutting wheels in good working condition. Never use segmented cutting wheels. Replace damaged or worn
cutting wheels immediately. Regularly check to ensure that the cutting wheel is correctly fastened to the tool.
3. Use protective gloves when handling cutting wheels. Cutting wheels can cause injuries, even when stationary.
TILE SAW SAFETY
1. Make sure the tile saw is securely positioned or mounted on a level, firm work surface before operating.
2. To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plug with wet
hands. Refer to “Positioning of the Tile Saw” on page 10 for instructions on arranging a “drip loop” in the power
cord to prevent water from entering the power outlet.
3. If any part of this tool is missing, broken, bent, or damaged in any way, shut off the power switch, disconnect the
power, and have the part replaced before operation. Never use the machine without the blade guard in position.
4. Wear ANSI Z87.1-approved impact-resistant safety goggles. Safety goggles should be worn during operation, as-
sembly or maintenance of the tool.
5. Always stand to the side of the cutting wheel. Never stand or have any part of your body in line with the path of
the wheel. Maintain a sufficient and safe distance from the cutting wheel.
6. Before turning on the tool, make sure the workpiece is not in contact with the cutting wheel. Let the cutting wheel
reach full speed before feeding in the workpiece.
7. This saw is for cutting tiles; never cut wood or metal with this saw. Do not exceed the cutting capacity of your saw.
8. Cut only one workpiece at a time. Do not stack workpieces on top of each other. Multiple workpieces can shift
during cutting and fly out of control.
9. Keep the water level between the minimum and maximum level markings on the inside of the water reservoir. Do
not operate the tile saw with too little or too much water. Lack of water in the reservoir may damage the tile blade.
10. Switch off the tile saw and wait until the cutting wheel comes to a complete stop before removing workpieces or
residual material from the work area.
11. This tile saw should be used at an ambient temperature between 59°F and 86°F (15°C and 30°C).
12. To avoid accidentally starting the tool, always disconnect the product from its power supply before performing
adjustments or maintenance.
13. Use only recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons.

ASSEMBLY
POSITIONING OF THE TILE SAW (Figs. 1 & 2)
Place the tile saw on a firm, level surface. Allow sufficient area around the tile saw and be prepared that the sur-
rounding area may get wet during operation.
Tile saws require water to cool down the cutting wheel. However, water contacting the power source or entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. To avoid the possibility of the power plug or receptacle getting
wet, the tile saw should be positioned to one side of a wall mounted receptacle (not directly above it). This prevents
water from dripping directly onto the receptacle or power plug.
Create a "drip loop" in the cord connecting the tool to the receptacle (Fig. 1). A “drip loop” is the part of the cord
that is below the level of the receptacle or the connector (if an extension cord is used). This will prevent the water
from traveling down along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.
If an extension cord is used, the cord connection must be placed on the elevated surface and the “drip loop” must
be arranged before the cord connection (Fig. 2) to prevent it from getting wet.
WARNING: If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. First disconnect the fuse
or circuit breaker that supplies power to the tool. Then, unplug the tool and examine for presence of
water in the receptacle.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not
touch the plug with wet hands.
6
WARNING: Improper connection of equipment grounding
conductor can result in the risk of electrical shock. Equipment
should be grounded while in use to protect operator from electrical
shock.
-Check with a qualified electrician if you do not understand
grounding instructions or if you are in doubt as to whether the tool
is properly grounded.
-This tool is equipped with an approved cord and a 3-prong
grounding type plug for you protection against shock hazards.
-Grounding plug should be plugged directly into a properly installed and grounded 3-prong grounding-type
receptacle, as shown.
-Do not remove or alter grounding prong in any manner, in the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical shock.
▲GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
USE 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 cause overheating.
Be 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.
POSITION OF THE TILE SAW
To avoid the possibility of the tool plug or outlet
getting
wet, position tile saw to one side of a wall-mounted
outlet
to prevent water from dripping onto the outlet or plug. The operator should
arrange
a “drip loop” in the
cord
connecting
the saw to the outlet.
The
“drip loop” is that part of the
cor
d
below the
level
of the outlet, or the
connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the cord
and
coming in contact with
the
outlet.
If the plug or outlet does get wet, DO NOT unplug the
cord.
Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies
power
to the tool then unplug and examine for the presence
of
