General Safety

Keep work area clear
• Cluttered areas and benches invite injuries
Consider work area environment
• Do not expose tools to rain
• Do not use tools in damp or wet locations
• Keep work area well lit
• Do not use tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases
Guard against electric shock
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces (e.g. pipes, radiators, ranges,
refrigerators)
Keep other persons away
• Do not let persons, especially children, not involved in the work touch the tool or the
extension cord and keep them away from the work area
Store idle tools
• When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry locked-up place, out of reach of
children
Do not force the tool
• It will perform the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended
Use the right tool
• Do not force small tools to do the job of a heavy duty tool
Do not use tools for purposes not intended; for example do not use circular saws to cut
tree limbs or logs
Dress appropriately
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, which can be caught in moving parts
• Suitable safety footwear is recommended when working outdoors.
• Wear protective covering to contain long hair
Use protective equipment
• Use safety glasses
• Use face or dust mask if working operations create dust
WARNING: Not using protective equipment or appropriate clothing can cause personal
injury or increase the severity of an injury.
Connect dust extraction equipment
• If the tool is provided for the connection of dust extraction and collecting equipment,
ensure these are connected and properly used
Do not abuse the power cable
• Never yank the power cable to disconnect it from the socket. Keep the power cable
away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Damaged or entangled power cables increase the
risk of electric shock
Secure work
• Where possible use clamps or a vice to hold the work. It is safer than using your hand
Do not overreach
• Keep proper footing and balance at all times
Maintain tools with care
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean makes the tool easier to control and less likely to
bind or lock in the workpiece
• Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories
• Inspect tool power cables periodically and if damaged have them repaired by an
authorized service facility
• Inspect extension cables periodically and replace if damaged
• Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease
WARNING: Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Disconnect tools - When not in use, before servicing and when changing accessories
such as blades, bits and cutters, disconnect tools from the power supply
WARNING: The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer
may result in a risk of injury to persons.
• Remove adjusting keys and wrenches - Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool before switching it on
• Avoid unintentional starting - Ensure switch is in "off' position when connecting to a
mains socket or inserting a battery pack, or when picking up or carrying the tool
WARNING: Unintended starting of a tool can cause major injuries.
• Use outdoor extension leads - When the tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords
intended for outdoor use and so marked. Use of an extension cable suitable for outdoor
use reduces the risk of electric shock
• Stay alert
• Watch what you are doing, use common sense and do not operate the tool when you
are tired
• Do not use a power tool while you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication
WARNING: A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
• Check damaged parts
• Before further use of tool, it 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, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation
• A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorized service centre unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual
• Have defective switches replaced by an authorized service centre
WARNING: Do not use the tool if the on/off switch does not turn it on and off. The switch
must be repaired before the tool is used.
• Have your tool repaired by a qualified person - This electric tool complies with the
relevant safety rules. Repairs should only be carried out by qualified persons, otherwise
this may result in considerable danger to the user
WARNING: When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING: If the power cable is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an
authorised service centre.
• Power tool mains plugs must match the mains socket - Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching sockets will reduce risk of electric shock
• If operating a power tool outside use a residual current device (RCD) - Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock
NOTE: The term "residual current device (RCD)" may be replaced by the term "ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI)" or "earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)".
WARNING: When used in Australia or New Zealand, it is recommended that this tool is
ALWAYS supplied via Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30mA
or less.
:
WARNING Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point
receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on
the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for
the tool can result in serious injury to the user, and damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not
plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is
harmful to the motor.
Polarized Plugs (for North America only) To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change
the plug in any way.
Tile Cutter Safety
• Only cut materials using this tile cutter as specified under 'Specifications' in this
instruction manual. Cutting materials the machine is not designed to cut could overload
the motor and break the blade.
• Ensure the tile cutter is mounted on a secure, flat surface. Not doing so will deem the
machine unstable and increase the risk of injury.
• ALWAYS stand in an offset position from the blade towards the support fence, standing
directly in line with the blade gives incorrect support to the workpiece.
• NEVER use the tile cutter without the blade guard; the blade guard will help deflect
projected debris and will lower the risk of accidental cut injuries.
• NEVER install a cutting blade with a rated speed that does not exceed the rated no load
speed of the machine.
• Ensure oversized workpieces are adequately supported during out-feed . Incorrectly
supported workpieces are more likely to be subjected to kickback.
• NEVER attempt to remove a workpiece during a cut with the blade still running. Always
switch the machine off and wait for the blade to reach a complete halt before removing
the part-cut workpiece.
• ALWAYS switch the machine off and remove the plug from the mains before carrying
out any adjustments or maintenance.
• ALWAYS wear appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) such as eye protection,
hearing protection and cut-proof gloves when working with this machine.
• Ensure the directional arrow displayed on the blade corresponds with the direction of
rotation of the motor.
• The disk, arbor and collars should always be kept clean and obstruction-free. Switch the
machine off and disconnect from the mains supply, then rotate the disk to ensure it is
free from obstruction.
• ALWAYS use the fence to support the tile - never cut the tile freehand
• ONLY ever cut one tile at a time
• Ensure the waste part of the tile has sufficient room to move after being cut; ignoring
this could cause the tile to bind against the cutting disk.
