SECTION 5: OPERATION

Cut Preparation

Wear safety glasses. a dust mask, and hearing protection while cutting with the machine. Failure to do this could result in serious personal injury.

To prepare for a cut:

1.Fill the water reservoir with water.

2.Plug the saw into the power source. Be sure the cord is positioned with the “drip loop” below the level of the outlet as shown in Figure 18, Page 14.

3.Wear safety glasses and a dust mask.

4.Turn the saw on and allow it to run for one minute. Be sure the blade runs smoothly. If the saw is not operating normally, do not use it. Contact our Service Department.

Cutting

To make a cut:

1.Using a marking pencil, mark the cutline on a piece of tile.

2.Place one edge of the tile against the raised lip on the trailing edge of the table as shown in Figure 20.

Figure 20. Cutting the tile.

3.Line up the saw blade with the cut line on the tile.

4.Turn the saw on and allow to run for one minute. Be sure the blade runs smoothly. A constant stream of water should be flowing onto each side of the blade.

5.Keeping your fingers out of the cutting path, slowly move the table and tile forward into the saw blade.

6.Do not feed the tile into the blade too fast. If the motor sounds like it is slowing down dur- ing the cut, you are feeding the tile too fast. Slow down the feed rate immediately.

If the saw shuts off unexpectedly, stop cutting the tile and turn the power switch off. Wait 15 minutes and press the circuit reset button.
