Skil 3540 - Operation; Tile Saw Location; Filling the Water Trough

OPERATION
Tile Saw Location
Use the tile saw in a well lit area and on a level
surface, clean and smooth enough to reduce
the risk of trips and falls. Use it where neither
the operator nor the casual observer is forced
to stand in line with the blade.
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 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.
DANGER
To reduce the risk of electrocution, DON’T unplug the cord if the plug
or receptacle gets wet. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that
supplies power to the tool. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in the
receptacle.
Filling the Water Trough
Fill the water trough with as much water as
possible, but do not over-ll. Do not add chemi-
cals or detergents to the water. (Fig. 6)
CAUTION
Lack of water may damage
the tile blade. Never turn on
the machine without enough water in the tray.
Add water if you notice saw dust in the air.
