Operation

Preliminary Safety Check

Before starting the saw, with the power cord unplugged, and the Power Switch turned to the OFF (“O”) position, check to ensure:

a)The safety shield is in place and properly adjusted.

b)The cutting wheel can be revolved freely by hand.

c)The Sliding Table is in place.

d)The tub has enough water to keep the blade wet.

e)The Access Cover is in place.

f)The wet saw is positioned on a solid, level surface which is sturdy enough to safely support the tool and your work materials.

Using the Sliding Table

The Sliding Table is an advanced feature of this product which aids in making safe and accurate cuts.

1)Grasp the handle of the Support Bar (50) and pull it straight out as far as needed to support the size tile you plan to cut.

2)If necessary, remove the Support Rod (52) from its storage location under the Access Cover (42), and place it under the Support Bar (50).

3)Unlock the Sliding Table (1) by moving the Table Locking Switch (54) to the “Unlock” position as shown in the photo.

4)The Sliding Table may now be moved forward and back along the top of the tool.

Basic Cutting Operation

1)Pull the Sliding Table (1) back far enough from the Blade (37) to place the tile on the table.

2)After making sure that it is safe to turn the power on, turn the Power Switch (14) to the ON position. Allow the Blade to come up to full speed. Check to be sure that the Blade is wet.

3)Using both hands, hold the tile securely against the fence at the back edge of the Sliding Table.

WARNING: Do not allow your hands or fingers to protrude over the notch at the back edge of the Sliding Table. The Blade will enter this space during the cutting operation.

4)Slowly push the Sliding Table and tile forward into the Blade (37). Feed the workpiece smoothly

into the Cutting Blade (37). Do not apply heavy pressure or bump the workpiece against the Cutting Blade. Try to allow the Cutting Blade to continue to turn at full speed as you work.
