Grounding Instructions  
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT GROUNDING WIRE CONNECTION  
READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:  
110-120 V~ Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs  
1. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,  
grounding provides a path of least resistance for  
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.  
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having 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.  
6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.  
Grounding  
Pin  
2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it will  
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet  
installed by a qualified electrician.  
Figure A: 125 V~ 3-Prong Plug and Outlet  
(for up to 125 V~ and up to 15 A)  
3. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding  
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.  
The conductor with insulation having an outer  
surface that is green 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.  
7. This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has  
an outlet that looks like the one illustrated above  
in Figure A: 125 V~ 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.  
The tool has a grounding plug  
that looks like the plug illustrated above in  
Figure A: 125 V~ 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.  
4. Check with a qualified electrician or service  
personnel if the grounding instructions are  
not completely understood, or if in doubt as  
to whether the tool is properly grounded.  
8. The outlet must be properly installed and grounded  
in accordance with all codes and ordinances.  
9. Do not use an adapter to connect

Tile Saw Safety Warnings  
For Your Own Safety Read Instruction Manual Before Operating Saw  
1. Wear eye protection.  
f. Kickback – A sudden reaction to a pinched,  
bound, or misaligned blade, causing  
an uncontrolled workpiece to lift up and  
out of the saw toward the operator.  
2. Use saw-blade guard and spreader  
for every operation for which it can be  
used, including all through sawing.  
g. Spreader – A metal plate that follows the  
saw blade to keep the kerf (gap) from closing  
on the saw blade. Spreaders, except riving  
knives, must be aligned to the blade after  
blade adjustment to prevent binding.  
3. Keep hands out of the line of saw blade.  
4. Use an appropriate push-stick when required.  
5. Know how to reduce risk of kickback.  
6. Do not perform any operation freehand.  
7. Never reach around or over saw blade.  
10. As noted previously, Kickback is a sudden reaction  
to a pinched, bound, or misaligned blade, causing an  
uncontrolled workpiece to lift up and out of the saw  
toward the operator.  
Kickback is usually a result of tool misuse and can be  
limited or avoided by following the precautions below:  
8. Make sure the workpiece is supported at all  
times while sawing. Use a roller stand (not  
provided) with larger workpieces if necessary.  
Fence must be completely  
parallel to the saw blade.  
9. To properly understand all safety warnings, be familiar  
with the following safety terms and equipment:  
Workpiece must be free from flaws  
and from foreign objects.  
a. Featherboard – A block with “fingers” that hold  
the workpiece against the fence while sawing.  
Support large workpieces along their  
entire length. Large workpieces tend  
to bend, grabbing the blade.  
b. Through-sawing – A cut made from one side of the  
workpiece to the opposite side, without stopping.  
Maintain control of the workpiece. Do not  
allow the workpiece to rest against the  
moving blade without holding onto it.  
c. Push-stick – A narrow strip of wood or other soft  
material with a notch cut into one end and which  
is used to push short pieces of material through  
saws. It provides a safe distance between the  
hands and the cutting tool. Must be narrower than  
the cut width to prevent contact with the blade.  
If the blade binds or a cut is interrupted, turn  
off the power switch and hold the workpiece  
still until the blade stops. Correct the cause  
of blade binding before proceeding.  
d. Freehand – Feeding a workpiece through the  
saw without using a fence or guided support  
to guide it. NOT A SAFE METHOD.  
11. Check guards for proper operation with saw  
disconnected from power before each use.  
Do not disable any guard. Do not operate  
saw if any movable guard does not move  
freely and close instantly. Make sure any  
movable guard does not touch the blade in  
all angles, depths of cut, and positions.  
e. Kerf – The gap made by the saw in the workpiece.  
12. Keep the guard in place while through-  
sawing. Verify that the spreader lines up  
with the blade to prevent binding.

Tile Saw Safety Warnings (cont.)  
POSITION OF TILE SAW  
Tile Saw  
EXTENSION CORDS  
16. Use only extension cords that are intended for  
outdoor use. These extension cords are identified  
by a marking “Acceptable for use with outdoor  
tools; 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.  
Power Cord  
Drip Loop  
17. WARNING – To reduce the risk of electrocution,  
keep all connections dry and off the ground.  
Do not touch plug with wet hands.  
18. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection  
should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s)  
to be used for the tile saw. Receptacles are  
available having built-in GFCI protection and  
may be used for this measure of safety.  
Figure B: Drip Loop  
13. To avoid the possibility of the tool plug or  
receptacle getting wet, position 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. 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 the receptacle.  
14. 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.

Vibration Safety  
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term  
exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent  
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and  
shoulders. To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:  
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces  
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,  
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.  
3. Use tools with the lowest vibration when there  
is a choice between different processes.  
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an  
extended period should first be examined by a  
doctor and then have regular medical check-ups  
to ensure medical problems are not being caused  
or worsened from use. Pregnant women or  
people who have impaired blood circulation to  
the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system  
disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud’s Disease should  
not use this tool. If you feel any medical or  
physical symptoms related to vibration (such as  
tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),  
seek medical advice as soon as possible.  
4. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.  
5. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping  
safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.  
6. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as  
explained in this manual. If any abnormal  
vibration occurs, stop use immediately.
