CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY 

FROM THE WORKING AREA 

Only the operator of the equipment 

should be in the working area. All 

other people especially children should 

be kept away at a safe distance.

• 

KEEP THE WORKING AREA 

CHILDPROOF 

It is important to keep the working 

area child proof. This can be done by 

using locks on the equipment, plastic 

plugs for the electrical outlets and 

possibly even master switches on the 

equipment.

• 

DO NOT DRY CUT WITH THE 

MACHINE 

The machine is not intended for dry 

cutting use. Always use sufficient water 

to wet cut tile, brick or natural stone. 

Dry cutting will result in dangerous dust 

levels (See also California Proposition 

65 message) and will damage the 

installed water pump. any equip-

ment that is returned with a damaged 

water pump due to dry cutting will 

be repaired or replaced totally at the 

customers expence. There will be no 

warranty claim.

• 

FORCING THE TOOL 

The equipment was designed to do 

a certain job. Do not force the equip-

ment to do something that it wasn’t 

designed to do.

• 

USING THE PROPER EXTENSION 

CORD 

If you plan to use an extension cord 

make sure it is in proper (good) work-

ing condition. Be sure that the exten-

sion cord is heavy enough to carry the 

current that the machine requires to run 

properly. If you use an extension cord 

that is underpowered a drop in voltage 

may occur along with a loss of power 

and/or overheating of the equipment

• 

CLOTHING 

It is important that the operator does 

not wear loose clothing that can poten-

tially get caught in moving parts of the 

equipment. It is recommended to wear 

non-slip shoes along with a hair cover-

ing to keep hair away from the moving 

parts.

• 

SAFETY GLASSES AND HEARING 

PROTECTION 

It is important to wear safety glasses 

and hearing protection when operating 

any type of equipment. Be sure that 

the safety glasses you wear are impact 

resistant.

• 

SECURE WORK 

Clamps or a vise should be used to 

hold your work whenever practical. 

Keeping your hands free to operate 

the machine is safer. When securing 

the material to be cut by hand, be sure 

your hands stay as far away as possi-

ble from the rotating saw blade.

• 

PROPER FOOTING 

It is important to keep proper footing 

and balance at all times when operat-

ing equipment. If proper footing is not 

observed by doing such things as over-

reaching, serious injury may occur.

• 

TOOL MAINTENANCE 

It is important to keep tools clean 

and in good working order. This will 

result in optimal performance of the 

machine. Always follow the main-

tenance instructions for proper tool 

maintenance.

• 

DISCONNECT TOOLS. 

It is important to disconnect the power 

toolbefore servicing the equipment. 

This should be done when changing 

accessories on the machine, changing 

blades and for other such things.

• 

REDUCING ACCIDENTAL STARTING 

OF MACHINE 

It is important to be sure that the switch 

is in the OFF position before you plug 

the machine into an electrical outlet.
