WATER PUMP SAFETY GUIDELINES
Always plug the saw power cord into a GFCI
outlet when using. If a GFCI type outlet is not
available, use a plug-in type GFCI plugged
into a properly grounded outlet. Do not use
any temporary plug adapters.
• The water pump is equipped with a ground electrical
plug, to reduce the risk of possible shock. Be sure
to connect to a properly grounded type receptacle.
• Never pick the water pump up out of the water when
it is plugged in.
• DO NOT EVER use the water pump to pump any -
thing but water.
• Never service the pump when it is still plugged in.
• Never let the pump operate dry. It is self-cooled by
pumping water. Dry use will cause the pump to fail.
• Maintain regularly and clean out debris from intake
screen.
• Check the power cord for nicks or frays and never
try to alter the power cord in any way.
Installation & Removal of Cutting Blade:
Always set the Motor Switch to OFF prior to
mounting the blade.
Be sure you are using the correct blade for the material
being cut. For example, blades are available for cutting
materials such as wall tile, quarry tile, marble, slate and
similarly hard materials. For the best results, always
use genuine Husqvarna diamond blades. Contact your
nearest dealer to select the correct blade for your spe -
cific cutting needs.
