materials at the speed that is best suited for the application. Please see page 8 for changing motor speeds and see below
for recommended speeds for different blade sizes.

overload-reset button are located on the power-reset housing the front top of the saw.

BLADE CUTTING SPEEDS & DEPTHS
The saw is shipped in the low-speed position (1750
RPM). It is recommended that the operator use this
speed for most applications. The high speed (2450 RPM)
is best for cutting softer ceramic tile, especially when
cutting a lot of the same material over a long period of
time. It is also recommended that the low speed be used
for profile wheels (see page 8 for changing speeds).
These recommended guidelines are based on 6", 7", 8”
and 10" QEP tile saw blades. The saw comes standard
with a 10" QEP #6-1003CR Continuous-Rim Diamond Blade.
Recommended cutting depths are approximate and may
vary, depending on the brand of saw or blade.
