ELECTRICAL If the saw is used with an extension cord, ensure the connection of the tool's power cord and the extension cord are not on the ground. If a protected outlet is not available, do not use the saw until an outlet can be changed or auxiliary protection can be obtained. These auxiliary protection devices are available at your local retailer. POSITION OF THE TILE SAW See Figure 2. To avoid the possibility of the tool plug or outlet getting wet, position tile saw to one side of a wall-mounted outlet to prevent water from dripping onto the outlet or plug. The operator should arrange a "drip loop" in the cord connecting the saw to the outlet. The "drip loop" is that part of the cord below the level of the outlet, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with the outlet. If the plug or outlet 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 the presence of water in the outlet. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch the plug with wet hands.
