Inspect the work area before each use. Keep work area clean, dry, free of clutter, and well-lit. 
Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury. Using the product in confined work areas 
may put you dangerously close to cutting tools and rotating parts. 

 

Do not use the product where there is a risk of causing a fire or an explosion; e.g., in the presence 
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. The product can create sparks, which may ignite the 
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. 

 

Do not allow the product to come into contact with an electrical source. The tool is not insulated 
and contact will cause electrical shock. 

 

Keep children and bystanders away from the work area while operating the tool. Do not allow 
children to handle the product.  

 

Be aware of all power lines, electrical circuits, water pipes, and other mechanical hazards in your 
work area. Some of these hazards may be hidden from your view and may cause personal injury 
and/or property damage if contacted. 

 

WARNING

 

PERSONAL SAFETY 

 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the tool. Do not use 
the tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of 
inattention while operating the tool may result in serious personal injury. 

 

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing 
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving 
parts. Air vents on the tool often cover moving parts and should be avoided. 

 

Wear the proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSI Z87.1 compliant safety 
goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use a dust mask in 
dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection systems, 
and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the work area.  

 

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 

 

Remove keys or wrenches before connecting the tool to an air supply, power supply, or turning on 
the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may cause personal 
injury. 

 

Secure the work with clamps or a vise instead of your hand when practical. This safety precaution 
allows for proper tool operation using both hands.  

 

CAUTION

 

TILE SAW USE AND CARE 

 

Do not force the tile saw. Products are safer and do a better job when used in the manner for 
which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct product for the job. 

 

Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the product will operate properly 
and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never operate the 
product with a damaged part.
