MAINTAINING YOUR TILE SAW
Maintenance
WARNING
For your own safety, turn switch “OFF” and remove plug from power
source outlet before maintaining or lubricating your saw.
The cord and the tool should be wiped with a dry clean cloth to prevent deterioration from oil
and grease.
WARNING
Certain cleaning agents and solvents can damage plastic parts. Some of
these are: gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents which contain am monia. Avoiding use of these and other
types of cleaning agents will minimize the possibility of damage.
A coat of automobile-type wax applied to the table will help to keep the surface clean and
allow workpieces to slide more freely.
If the power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.
WARNING
All repairs, electrical or mechanical, should be attempted only by trained
repairmen. Contact the nearest Factory Service Center or Authorized
Service Station or other competent repair service. Use only identical replacement parts, any
other may create a hazard.
