Grounding Instructions

• In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for the electric current
to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This tool has an
electric cord with an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a
matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• Do not modify the plug provided with this tool.
If it will not fit the outlet, have a properly grounded
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in electric shock. The wire covered with green
insulation is the equipment- grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary,
do not connect the green wire to a live terminal.
• Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if there is a question as to whether the
outlet or tool is properly grounded. Use only 3-wire
extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs
and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
• Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
• This tool is intended for use on a circuit with a grounded
outlet (B, Fig. 1). The tool has a grounding plug (A, Fig. 1).

• A temporary adapter (D, Fig. 1) may be used to connect
this plug to a 2-pole receptacle (C, Fig. 1), if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The green-colored tab
extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet
box. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
qualified electrician can install a properly grounded outlet.
• Ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit or outlet to be used for the tile
saw. Receptacles are also available having built-in GFCI
protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

Personal Safety

The operation of any power tool can
result in foreign objects being thrown into
your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before
beginning power-tool operation, always wear safety goggles
or safety glasses with side shields, and a full- face shield when
needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over
eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with shields. Always use
eye protection, which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1
• STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, and
USE COMMON SENSE when operating a power tool.
• DO NOT use the tool while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
• WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing,
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry.
• Pull back and secure long hair. Non-
slip footwear is recommended.
• KEEP YOUR HAIR, CLOTHING, AND
HANDS AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS OR WRENCHES.
Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the tool before turning it on.
• ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday glasses may
have impact-resistant lenses, but they are NOT safety glasses.
• USE A DUST OR FACE MASK, if the operation is dusty.
• WEAR HEARING PROTECTION
to help prevent hearing loss.
• NEVER TOUCH THE PINS OF THE ELECTRICAL PLUG
while inserting it into or removing it from an electrical socket.
• NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the
tool is tipped, or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
