INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

1.WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch (37) of the Tile Saw is in its “OFF” position and that the unit is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

2.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Tile Saw. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, damaged electrical wiring, dam- aged Hoses, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.

3.Before each use, inspect the Saw Blade (4). Using a dull Saw Blade will cause excessive wear on the Motor, and will not produce a satisfactory cut. Replace with a new Saw Blade when needed.

4.Before each use, inspect the mounting Screws on all Safety Covers and the Arbor Nut (6) on the Motor Arbor. If necessary, retighten all loose hardware.

5.After each use, immediately clean the Water Pump (7) to keep dried debris from sticking to the Filter (7B) and Impeller which will obstruct the water flow. To clean the Water Pump, remove the Outer Cover (7A). Remove the Filter (7B). Then, remove the Inner Cover (7C) to expose the Impeller. Use a small brush and clean water to remove any debris on the Filter and Impeller. If necessary, replace the old Filter with a new Filter. When finished, replace the Inner Cover, Filter, and Outer Cover. (See Assy. Diagram.)

6.If the Water Pump (7) should fail, first try cleaning the Filter (7B) and Impeller of debris to make sure they are not plugged (see Step #5 above). If the Water Pump still does not operate properly, the Pump must be replaced. (See Assy. Diagram.)

7.To replace the Water Pump (7), remove the Water Tray (67). Locate the Pump Plug Cover (118) on the inner left side of the Frame. Unscrew and remove the Knob 119, Spring Washer (95), Washer (102), and Lock Nut (107) from the Pump Plug Cover. Remove the Pump Plug Cover to expose the Pump Cable (117). Disconnect the Pump Cable from the Water Pump. Next, disconnect the Pump Connector (115) from the Water Pump. Then, remove the old Water Pump. Install the new Water Pump, following the previously mentioned Steps in reverse order. (See Assy. Diagram.)

8.To clean the exterior parts: Use only a clean cloth and mild detergent to clean the body of the Tile Saw. Use a vacuum or compressed air to clean the Motor (1) ventilation slots. Do not immerse any electrical part of the tool in liquid.

9.When storing, always completely empty the Tile Saw of water. Frost will damage the Pump if the unit contains water. Store the Tile Saw indoors in a dry, frost-free room.
