OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

Cutting Tile

WARNING! Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Wear ANSI approved safety glasses under an ANSI approved full face safety shield and non-skid safety shoes. Hearing and breathing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Note: Make sure the water level in the Tray (46) is filled to just below the over- flow plug.

The Blade Guard (8) must always be in place when cutting. Never use the Tile Saw without the Blade Guard (8) in place.

1.Using a pencil, mark a cut line on the piece of tile.

2.Loosen the Locking Knob (16) on the Fence (13) and slide it to the edge of the table. Then, line up the cut line on the tile with the Blade (42). Adjust the Fence

(13)so it is snug against the edge of the tile. Lock the Fence (13) into position by tightening the Locking Knob (16).

3.Using the Switch (24) (See the Assembly Drawing on page 19), turn on the Tile Saw and wait until the Blade (42) reaches full speed. Visually check the Blade

(42)to make sure it is running smoothly and evenly. (If the Blade (42) does not run smooth and even, shut off the unit, unplug it, and re-seat the Blade (42) ac- cording to the instructions on page 13). Check to make sure that the Blade (42) is wet.

4.Make sure your hands / fingers are clear of the Blade (42) cutting path, use the Pusher (4) to contact and push the Tile toward the Blade (42). Feed the tile slowly into the Blade (42), allowing the Blade to do the work. If the motor speed decreases, you are pushing too fast. Immediately slow down. If you push too fast, a thermal breaker may cut the saw off. If that happens, immediately turn off the saw and wait until the unit is completely cool before starting it back up.

5.When you are finished cutting, turn off the Tile Saw and unplug it from the outlet.

Bevel Cutting - For cutting 45o beveled cuts.

1.Lift the Bevel Table (3) and swing out the arm and rest it in the groove to keep the table up. See FIGURE 1 on page 13.

2.Using a pencil, mark a cut line on the piece of tile. Line up the cutting line with the Blade (42), with the tile resting on the angled Bevel Table (3). Follow the cutting instructions in numbers 3, 4 and 5 above.
