personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the tool is properly grounded.
•
use only 3-wire eXtension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles
that accept the tile saw's plug.
•
repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
•
if the plug or receptacle does get wet, do not 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.
•
only ul-listed eXtension cords should be used with this product.
•
i mproper use of eXtension cords may cause inefficient operation of your tool,
which can result in overheating. Be sure your extension cord is rated to allow sufficient current
flow to the motor. For the proper gauge for this tile saw, please refer to table 1.
•
do not let your fingers touch the terminals of plug when installing or removing the
plug to or from the outlet.
•
this tile saw must be properly grounded. The risk of electric shock and bodily injury are
greatly increased if it is not, particularly when used in damp locations or in proximity to plumbing.
note: This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated
in figure 2 (a). The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in figure 2 (a). A
temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in figure 2 (b) and (c), may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in figure 2 (b) if a properly grounded outlet can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid prongs extending from the adapter must
be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
WARNING
AVERTISSEMENT
•
Use extreme caution when cutting tile. Make sure hands and fingers are clear from the blade
groove in the sliding table. Severe abrasion, cuts , or pinching of hands or fingers can occur as the
table is advanced, particularly at the end of its travel.
ADVERTENCIA
•
Electrical shock can occur if operating instructions are not followed.
for your own safety read instruction manual before operating saw.
•
Wear eye protection.
•
Use splash hood for every operation for which it can be used.
•
Unplug saw before servicing, when changing cutting wheels, and cleaning.
•
Use tool only with smooth-edge cutting wheels free of openings and grooves.
•
Replace damaged cutting wheel before operating.
•
Do not fill water tray above water fill line.
EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING
1. Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are identified
AVERTISSEMENT
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
ADVERTENCIA
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. Gound 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.
3. use proper eXtension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use a cord heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss power and
overheating.
PERSONAL INJURY CAN OCCUR IF
OPERATED IMPROPERLY.
• K eep fingers and loose clothing away from rotating blade.
TO REDUCE ThE RISk OF ELECTROCUTION, kEEP ALL CONNECTIONS DRY AND OFF ThE
