SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Wet Tile Saw. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a
replacement.
2.
DANGER! Keep hands and fingers away from cutting area and Saw
Blade. Use a appropriate push stick (not included) whenever possible.
3.
Check Blade Guard for proper upward/downward movement before each
use. Do not operate the Wet Tile Saw if the Blade Guard does not move
freely. Never clamp or tie the Blade Guard into the upward position. If the
Wet Tile Saw is accidentally dropped, the Blade Guard may be bent. Raise the
Blade Guard and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the Saw Blade or
any other part of the Saw, in all angles and depths of cut.
4.
Always use Diamond Blades (sold separately) with 7” diameter, 5/8” round
arbor hole, and rated at a minimum 3,600 RPM. Blades that do not match the
mounting hardware of the Wet Tile Saw or that are rated at less than the required
minimum RPM will run eccentrically causing loss of control or may fly off the Saw.
5.
Use the Wet Tile Saw only for cutting ceramic tile, quarry tile, marble, terra
cotta, and slate with a maximum thickness of 1-1/4”.
6.
Do not use the Wet Tile Saw for cutting metals, or for cutting curves. This
may cause the Saw Blade to break, and reduce its service life.
7.
Make sure the Saw Blade remains wet at all times while cutting.
