ASSEMBLY & SET UP
THE FOLLOWING IS STEP-BY-
STEP INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTION
MANUAL. PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION
THOROUGHLY PRIOR TO USING YOUR TILE SAW.
A. STAND SETUP
The stand is ready to use. Simply unfold it as shown
in FIGURE 4.
Place the
saw frame on the stand and tighten the stand
knobs for safety (FIGURE 5). You may need to move
or remove water tray to easily secure safety knobs to
stand frame.
TABLE 1
SPECIFIC SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Ensure that the directional arrow marked on the
blade corresponds with the rotational direction of
the motor.
2. With the saw disconnected from the power supply,
rotate the blade by hand to ensure it is free from
obstruction.
3. Always keep the blade-securing arbor and collars
clean.
4. Ensure that the blade-securing bolt is securely
tightened.
5. Never try to cut freehand. Always ensure that the
tile to be cut is pressed firmly against the rip guide.
6. Ensure the material being cut off has sufficient
room to move sideways. Failure to do so may result
in the off-cut binding against the blade.
7. Never cut more than one tile at a time.
8. Never cut pieces too small that are not held securely
against the rip guide, and provide enough space for
the hand to be a safe distance from the blade.
9. Ensure that the table and surrounding area are
clear with the exception of the tile to be cut.
10. Before cutting a tile piece, let the saw blade run
freely for a few seconds. If it makes an unfamiliar
sound or vibrates excessively, switch it off
immediately and disconnect it from the power
supply.
11. Let the blade reach full speed before beginning
the cut.
12. Let the blade come to a complete stop before
removing any jammed material from around the
blade area.
13. Never allow the blade to run dry. Failure to keep
the water tray at the recommended level will result
in possible over-heating of the diamond blade.
