general information

The TP24 is a powerful, robust saw designed to professionally handle large-sized cuts on ceramics, stone, and masonry materials. A sturdy steel precision frame and easily removable ABS water tray provides overall durability and longevity.

This saw is equipped with a trusted high-torque 2 HP electric motor that operates on standard 115 V power and is designed with thermal overload and fan air cover protection.

An innovative water-cooled bearing assembly works in conjunction with the water pump to keep key bearing components running cooler.

The TP24 saw comes complete with premium blade and high flow water pump.

Dry Cutting Applications

The TP24 tile saw is shipped from the factory for wet-cutting saw applications, however it can be used for dry-cutting saw applications. The most import thing to remember is to disconnect the water pump. The water pump is cooled by the flow of water, and failure to disconnect the pump (when running dry) will cause pump failure.

NOTICE

NEVER have the water pump engaged when dry cutting applications are involved.

Blade Applications

This saw has been designed to incorporate the use of diamond blades as the cutting tool. The optimum performance of this saw is best evidenced by using 10-inch (254 mm) diamond blades that match the material being cut. Ask your dealer, or call Multiquip about your specific cutting application.

Accessories/Replacement Parts

If desired, the TP24 tile saw can be equipped with a support stand with wheels. This stand is ideal when the saw needs to be placed on a secure reliable platform.
