SAFETY INFORMATION
POSITION OF TILE SAW
• To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or
receptacle getting wet, position tile saw to one side of
a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping
onto the receptacle or plug. The user should arrange a
"drip loop" in the cord connecting the saw to a receptacle.
The "drip loop" is the part of the cord below the level of
the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is
used, to prevent water traveling along the cord and
coming into contact with the receptacle.
• If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DO NOT unplug
the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that
supplies power to the tool. Then unplug and examine
for presence of water in the receptacle.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
CAUTION
In all cases, verify that the outlet in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a licensed
electrician check the outlet.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has
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. If it will not fit the outlet, have
the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with a green outer
surface, with or without yellow stripes, is the equipment-grounding
conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is
necessary, DO NOT connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with
a qualified electrician or service technician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only three-wire extension cords that have
three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug, as shown. Repair
or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
