GrOunDinG Wire cOnnectiOn reaD anD FOLLOW tHeSe inStructiOnS:
110-120 Vac Grounded tools: tools with three prong plugs
1. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
3. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor.
If repair or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal.
4. Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in doubt as
to whether the tool is properly grounded.
5. Use only 3-wire extension cords that
have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole
receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.
6. Repair or replace damaged or
worn cord immediately.

Drip
Loop
1. To avoid the possibility of the tool plug or
receptacle getting wet, position tile saw to one
side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent
water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug.
The user should arrange a “drip loop” in the cord
connecting the saw to a receptacle. The “drip
loop” is that part of the cord below the level of
the receptacle, or the connector if an extension
cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the
cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.
2. If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DON’T unplug
the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker
that supplies power to the tool. Then unplug and
examine for presence of water in the receptacle.
Page 5For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797.Item 64684
SaFetyOperatiOnMaintenance Setup
eXtenSiOn cOrDS
1. Use only extension cords that are intended for
outdoor use. These extension cords are identified
by a marking ″Acceptable for use with outdoor
appliances; store indoors while not in use.″ Use
only extension cords having an electrical rating
not less than the rating of the product. Do not use
damaged extension cords. Examine extension
cord before using and replace if damaged. Do
not abuse extension cords and do not yank
on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away
from heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect
the extension cord from the receptacle before
disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
2. WARNING - To reduce the risk of electrocution,
keep all connections dry and off the ground.
Do not touch plug with wet hands.
3. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection
should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet
(s) to be used for the tile saw. Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection and
may be used for this measure of safety.
Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or
long-term exposure to vibration may cause
temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an
extended period should first be examined by a
doctor and then have regular medical check-ups
to ensure medical problems are not being caused
or worsened from use. Pregnant women or
people who have impaired blood circulation to
the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system
disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud’s Disease should
not use this tool. If you feel any medical or
physical symptoms related to vibration (such as
tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
3. Use tools with the lowest vibration when there
is a choice between different processes.
4. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
5. Grip workpiece as lightly as possible (while still
keeping safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
6. To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as
explained in this manual. If any abnormal
vibration occurs, stop use immediately.
