3. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the saw.
Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

1. Ensure that the directional arrow marked on the blade corresponds with the rotational direction of the motor.
2. With the saw disconnected from the power supply, rotate the blade by hand to ensure it is free from obstruction.
3. Always keep the blade-securing arbor and collars clean.
4. Ensure that the blade-securing bolt is securely tightened.
5. Never try to cut freehand. Always ensure that the tile to be cut is pressed firmly against the rip fence.
6. Ensure that the workpiece that will be cut off has sufficient room to move sideways. Failure to do so may result in the off-
cut binding against the blade.
7. Never cut more than one tile at a time.
8. Never cut pieces too small that are not held securely against the rip fence, and provide enough space for the hand to be a
safe distance from the blade.
9. Ensure that the table and surrounding area are clear with the exception of the tile to be cut.
10.Before cutting a tile piece, let the saw blade run freely for a few seconds. If it makes an unfamiliar sound or vibrates
excessively, switch it off immediately and disconnect it from the power supply.
11.Let the blade reach full speed before commencing the cut.
12.Let the blade come to a complete stop before removing any jammed material from around the blade area.
13.Never allow the blade to run dry. Failure to keep the water tray at the recommended level will result in possible over-heating
of the diamond blade.
