OPERATION
USING THE MITER GUIDE
See Figure 16.
To adjust angles:
Install the miter guide onto the rip guide.
Loosen the lock knob and rotate the miter guide until the
angle selector points to the desired angle.
Securely tighten the lock knob.
MAKING CUTS
Always draw the line to be cut on the tile using a marker or
grease pencil. If the tile is shiny and difficult to mark, place
masking tape on the tile and mark the tape.
A common problem when cutting tile is straying from the
marked line. Once you've strayed from the mark, you can not
force the wheel back to the line by twisting the tile. Instead,
back up and recut the tile slicing off a small amount of tile
until the wheel is back on track.
To avoid this problem, use the rip guide when making cross
cuts, the miter guide for miter cuts and the bevel table for
making bevel cuts, whenever possible.
Another problem is cutting difficult material. To prevent chip-
ping of the material at the end of the cut: first cut 1-1/2 in.
of the material then turn off the saw; flip the material around
180º and make the cut.
Clean the saw table, rip and miter guides, and bevel table
frequently during use. Debris from the cut material can in-
terfer with tool function.
TO MAKE A CROSS CUT
See Figure 17.
Cross cuts are straight 90° cuts. The material is fed into the
cut at a 90° angle to the wheel.
Using a marker or grease pencil, mark the area to be cut
on material.
Remove the miter guide.
Position the rip guide the desired distance from the wheel
for the cut and securely lock the lever.
Place the material on the table and firmly against the rip
guide.
Make sure the material is clear of the cutting wheel before
turning on the saw.
Turn the on/off switch to the ON position.
Let the cutting wheel build up to full speed and wait for
the wheel to get wet before moving the material into the
wheel.
Hold the material firmly against the rip guide and feed
the material into the cutting wheel.
When the cut is made, turn the saw OFF. Wait for the
cutting wheel to come to a complete stop before remov-
ing any part of the material.
