WORK-AREA SAFETY
KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIT. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
• DON'T USE IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose them
to rain. Don't operate power tools in potentially explosive
environments, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks, which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
• OPERATE THE TOOL IN WELL-VENTILATED AREAS,
and provide proper dust removal. Dust generated from
some materials can be hazardous to your health. Use dust-
collection systems whenever possible.
• KEEP CHILDREN AND BYSTANDERS AWAY. All visitors
should be kept a safe distance away from the work area.
• USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force a tool or attachment
to do a job for which it was not designed.
• MAKE THE TILE SAW CHILD AND TAMPER PROOF
Use padlocks, master switches, or lock by removing starter
keys.

PERSONAL SAFETY

The operation of any power tool can result in
foreign objects being thrown into your eyes,
which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning
power-tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields, and a full- face shield when needed.
We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over
eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with shields. Always use
eye protection, which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1
• STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, and
USE COMMON SENSE when operating a power tool.
• DO NOT use the tool while tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol, or medication.
• WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry.
• PULL BACK AND SECURE LONG HAIR. Non-slip
footwear is recommended.
• KEEP YOUR HAIR, CLOTHING, AND HANDS AWAY
FROM MOVING PARTS.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS OR WRENCHES. Form a
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from the tool before turning it on.
• ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday glasses may
have impact-resistant lenses, but they are NOT safety
glasses.
• USE A DUST OR FACE MASK, if the operation is dusty.
• WEAR HEARING PROTECTION to help prevent hearing
loss.
• NEVER TOUCH THE PINS OF THE ELECTRICAL PLUG
while inserting it into or removing it from an electrical
socket.
• NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if
the tool is tipped, or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
3

Tool Safety

KEEP ALL GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
• AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure the switch
is in the "Off" position before plugging the tool into an
electrical outlet.
• DO NOT CARRY TOOLS WITH YOUR FINGER ON THE
SWITCH.
• DO NOT OVER REACH. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
• DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. Use the correct tool and
cutting wheel for your application. The correct tool and
cutting wheel will do the job better and more safely when
used at the rate for which it is designed.
• DO NOT USE TOOL IF THE SWITCH DOES NOT TURN
IT "ON" OR "OFF." Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• DISCONNECT THE TOOL before servicing, when
changing accessories (such as cutting wheels), or storing
the tool.
• STORE IDLE TOOLS OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN and other untrained people.
• NEVER LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED;
TURN THE POWER OFF. Don't leave the tool until it
comes to a complete stop.
• ALWAYS MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep cutting
tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control. Follow all instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories.
• CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of
the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, mounting, and any
other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard,
cutting wheel or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced.
• USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the
product manual for recommended accessories. The use
of improper accessories may increase the risk of personal
injury.

SERVICE SAFETY

• If any part of this wet-tile/stone saw stand is missing
or should break, bend, or fail in any way; or should
any electrical component on the tile saw fail to perform
properly: ALWAYS shut off the power switch and remove
the plug from the power source, and have the missing,
damaged, or failed part replaced BEFORE resuming
operation.
• When servicing a tool, ALWAYS use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance
Section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure
to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
