Do not use.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recom-
mended accessories. The use of improp-
er accessories may cause risk of injury
to persons.
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.
Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an exten-
sion cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your prod-
uct will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. Table A
shows the correct size to use depending
on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
18. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious inju-
ry could occur if the tool is tipped or if the
cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
19. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before
further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended func-
tion – check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other
conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced.
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets, or other jewelry which may get
caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear
is recommended. Wear protective hair
covering to contain long hair.
20. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into
a blade or cutter against the direction of
rotation of the blade or cutter only.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation
is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT
safety glasses.
21. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t
leave tool until it comes to a complete
stop.
12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise
to hold work when practical. It’s safer
than using your hand and it frees both
hands to operate tool.
13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK
AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT
GROUNDING WIRE
6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.
CONNECTION
READ AND FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS:
Grounding
Pin
110-120 V~ Grounded Tools: Tools
with Three Prong Plugs
1. In the event of a malfunction or break-
down, 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 ac-
cordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
125 V~ 3-Prong Plug and Outlet
(for up to 125 V~ and up to 15 A)
7. This tool is intended for use on a circuit
that has an outlet that looks like the one
illustrated above in 125 V~ 3-Prong
Plug and Outlet. The tool has a ground-
ing plug that looks like the plug illustrated
above in 125 V~ 3-Prong Plug and
Outlet.
8. The outlet must be properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances.
2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
9. Do not use an adapter to connect this
tool to a different outlet.
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.
Tile Saw Safety Warnings
For Your Own Safety Read Instruction
Manual Before Operating Saw
1. Wear eye protection.
2. Use saw-blade guard and spreader for
every operation for which it can be used,
including all through sawing.
4. Check with a qualified electrician or ser-
vice personnel if the grounding instruc-
tions are not completely understood, or
if in doubt as to whether the tool is prop-
erly grounded.
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.
5. Use only 3-wire extension cords that
have 3-prong grounding plugs and

6. Do not perform any operation freehand.
7. Never reach around or over saw blade.
closing on the saw blade. Spreaders,
except riving knives, must be aligned
to the blade after blade adjustment to
prevent binding.
8. Make sure the workpiece is supported
at all times while sawing. Use a roller
stand (not provided) with larger work-
pieces if necessary.
j. Riving Knife – A spreader mounted on
the same mechanism as the blade.
Generally more effective than simple
spreaders.
9. To properly understand all safety warn-
ings, be familiar with the following safety
terms and equipment:
10. As noted previously, Kickback is a sud-
den reaction to a pinched, bound, or mis-
aligned blade, causing an uncontrolled
workpiece to lift up and out of the saw
toward the operator.
a. Featherboard – A block with “fingers“
that hold the workpiece against the
fence while sawing.
Kickback is usually a result of tool mis-
use and can be limited or avoided by
following the precautions below:
b. Through-sawing – A cut made from one
side of a board to the opposite side,
without stopping.
• Fence must be completely parallel to
the saw blade.
c. Ripcut or Ripping - A cut made parallel
to (along with) the grain of the wood.
• Workpiece must be free from flaws
(such as loose knots) and from foreign
objects (such as nails and screws).
d. Crosscut or Crosscutting - A cut made
perpendicular (at a 90° angle) to the
grain of the wood.
• Support large workpieces along their
entire length. Large workpieces tend to
bend, grabbing the blade.
e. 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.
• Do not use a dull, damaged, or pitch-
covered blade.
• Do not use fence as a guide when
crosscutting.
• Do not ripcut a twisted or warped work-
piece, or workpiece without straight
edge to guide along fence.
f. Freehand – Feeding a workpiece
through the saw without using a fence
or guided support to guide it. NOT A
SAFE METHOD.
• Maintain control of the workpiece. Do
not allow the workpiece to rest against
the moving blade without holding onto
it.
g. Kerf – The gap made by the saw in the
workpiece.
h. 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 opera-
tor.
• If the blade binds or a cut is interrupt-
ed, turn off the power switch and hold
the workpiece still until the blade stops.
Correct the cause of blade binding be-
fore proceeding.
i. Spreader – A metal plate that follows the
saw blade to keep the kerf (gap) from
• Before continuing an unfinished cut,
center the blade in the pre-cut kerf and

check that the saw teeth are not en-
gaged into the workpiece before turn-
ing on the saw.
• Push the wood stock past the blade
prior to release.
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.
12. Keep the guard in place while through-
sawing. Verify that the spreader lines up
with the blade to prevent binding.
13. Construct an appropriate Push Stick out
of wood according to the guidelines on
the following page.
