Place the saw into the stand as shown in Figure 21. If not using a stand, place saw on a level surface. Motor Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheating. All DEWALT tools are factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power supply. • Always plug saw into a GFCI receptacle. • Always plug extension cord into a GFCI receptacle. • Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are identified by a marking "Acceptable for use with outdoor appliance; store indoors while not in use." • Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product. • Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged. • Do not abuse extension cords and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. • Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges. • Always disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord. On/Off Switch WARNING: To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the wet tile saw to one side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water from dipping onto the receptacle or plug. The user should arrange a "drip loop" in the cord connecting the saw to a FIG. 6 FIG. 7 V M FIG. 9 FIG. 11 FIG. 8 FIG. 10 7 3/16" (5 MM) receptacle (Fig. 6). The "drip loop" is that 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 in contact with the receptacle. To turn the wet tile cutter on, lift up the on/off switch (A). The wet tile saw locks on automatically. To turn the tool off, push the on/off switch down. A hole is provided under the switch for insertion of a padlock to deter unauthorized use. Water Nozzles Water nozzles (M) are adjustable to provide maximum water for cutting and maximum capacity with the minimum amount of overspray and mist. The adjusting lever (V) allows easy adjustment of nozzles to desired position. 1. Optimum position for minimum overspray (Fig. 7). 2. Water nozzles (M) can be fully retracted to allow for maximum capacity (Fig. 8). 3. "Off Cutting Wheel" position to eliminate water overspray between cuts and for blade change (Fig. 9). Cutting Wheel Alignment TO CHECK ALIGNMENT (FIG. 10) 1. Place a 90˚ framing square on the cutting cart fence (X). 2. Push the cutting cart along the cutting wheel to determine if the gap along the framing square is consistent along the length of the stroke. 3. If the gap is not consistent, see the Adjustments section of this manual. Cutting Wheel Depth (Fig. 11) The outer rim of the cutting wheel should always be at least 3/16" (5mm) below the cart surface. Push cart entirely through the cutting wheel before cutting to be sure that the cutting wheel depth is properly adjusted to avoid cutting the cart. If the cutting wheel height is not set, see the Adjustments section of this manual. Failure to adjust properly could cause damage or injury. Making a Cut (Fig. 12) CAUTION: Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories. Be sure the switch is in the OFF position. Before turning the saw on, verify the proper alignment of the cutting cart and cutting wheel. Always center the cutting wheel in one of the cutting cart grooves (Y) before cutting (0˚, 22.5˚ or 45˚). If the cutting wheel is not centered in the cart groove, please see the Adjustments section of this manual. 1. Fill a 5 gallon bucket with water. Submerge the water pump into the bucket. 2. Place the tile to be cut onto the cutting cart and secure the edge guide (J) with the edge guide lock (W). Always keep hands away from the cutting wheel. English
