GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND HAZARD SYMBOLS:

In order to prevent injury, the following safety precautions and symbols should be followed

at all times!

Safety Precautions:

KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE.

REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.

Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed

from the power tool before it is turned on.

KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN.

Cluttered work areas and benches invite accidents.

DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT.

Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations nor expose them to rain. Always

keep the work area well lighted.

In order to prevent injury, keep guards in place and in working order at all times.

MK-145 Revision 11/01 Effective date – November 21, 2001 Page 5

SAFETY:

KEEP CHILDREN AWAY.

All visitors and children should be kept a safe distance from work area.

MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF.

Make the workshops kid proof by using padlocks, master switches or by

removing starter keys.

DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL.

A power tool will do a job better and safer operating at a rate for which it was

designed

USE THE RIGHT TOOL.

Do not force a tool or attachment, to do a job that it was not designed to do.

USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD.

If using an extension cord, make sure its in good condition first. When using an

extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your

product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage that will

result in a loss of power and overheating. TABLE 1, (Page 9) shows the correct

AWG size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in

doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the

cord.

WEAR PROPER APPAREL.

Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry

that may be caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear

protective hair covering to contain long hair.

ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.

Safety glasses should always be worn when working around power

tools. In addition, a face or dust mask should be worn if a cutting

operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant

lenses and may not prevent eye injury-they are NOT safety glasses.

SECURE WORK.

Clamps or a vise should be used to hold work whenever practical. Keeping your

hands free to operate a power tool is safer.

DO NOT OVERREACH.

Always keep proper footing and balance at all times by not overreaching.

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE.

Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance. Always follow

maintenance instructions for lubricating and when changing accessories.

DISCONNECT TOOLS.

Power tools should always be disconnected before servicing or when changing

accessories such as, blades, bits, cutters, and the like.

MK-145 Revision 11/01 Effective date – November 21, 2001 Page 6

SAFETY:

REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.

Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in OFF position before plugging in a power tool.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Consult the owner's manual for recommended accessories. Using improper

accessories may increase the risk of personal or by-stander injury.

NEVER STAND ON TOOL.

Serious injury could occur if a power tool is tipped, or, if the cutting tool is

unintentionally contacted.

CHECK DAMAGED PARTS.

Before using a power tool, check for damaged parts. A guard or another part that

is damaged should be carefully checked to determine it would operate properly

and perform its intended function. Always check moving parts for proper

alignment or binding. Check for broken parts, mountings and all other conditions

that may affect the operation of the power tool. A guard, or any damaged part,

should be properly repaired or replaced.

DIRECTION OF FEED.

Always feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation. A blade

or cutter should always be installed such that rotation is in the direction of the

arrow imprinted on the side of the blade or cutter.

NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED – TURN POWER OFF.

Do not leave a tool until it comes to a complete stop. Always turn a power tool

OFF when leaving the work area or when finished cutting.

Hazard Symbols:

ELECTRICAL SHOCK!

Never touch electrical wires or components while the motor is running. Exposed,

frayed or worn electrical motor wiring can be sources of electrical shock that

could cause severe injury or burns.

ACCIDENTAL STARTS!

Before plugging the equipment into an electrical outlet, be sure the ON/OFF

switch is in the "OFF" position to prevent accidental starting. Unplug the power

tool before performing any service operation.

ROTATING OR MOVING PARTS!

Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury.

Never operate a power tool with covers, shrouds, or guards removed.

MK-145 Revision 11/01 Effective date – November 21, 2001 Page 7

SAFETY:

Sawing and drilling generates dust. Excessive airborne particles may cause irritation to

eyes, skin and respiratory tract. To avoid breathing impairment, always employ dust

controls and protection suitable to the material being sawed or drilled; See OSHA (29 CFR

Part 1910.1200). Diamond Blades improperly used are dangerous. Comply with American

National Standards Institute Safety Code, B7.1 and, Occupational Safety and Health Act

covering Speed, Safety Guards, Flanges, Mounting Procedures, General Operating Rules,

Handling, Storage and General Machine Conditions.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 MESSAGE:

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction

activities contain chemicals known [to the State of California] to cause cancer, birth defects

or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead, from lead-based paints

• Crystalline silica, from bricks and cement and other masonry products and

• Arsenic and chromium, from chemically treated lumber

Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this type of work.

To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area, and work with

approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter

out microscopic particles.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

In order to prevent potential electrical shock and injury, the following electrical safety

precautions and symbols should be followed at all times!

In case of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least

resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is

equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a

grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

• Do not modify the plug provided – if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper

outlet installed by a qualified electrician

• Improper connections of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a

risk of electric shock. The equipment-grounding conductor is the insulated

conductor that has an outer surface that is green with or without yellow

stripes. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do

not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal

• Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding

instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool

is properly grounded

• Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-

pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug

• Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately

MK-145 Revision 11/01 Effective date – November 21, 2001 Page 8

SAFETY:

This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one

shown in Sketch A, in Figure 1. The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the

plug illustrated in Sketch A, in FIGURE 1. A temporary adapter that looks like the

adapter illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used

to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown

in Sketch B, if a properly grounded outlet is not

available. The temporary adapter should be used

only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed

by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid ear,

lug and the like, extending from the adapter must be

connected to a permanent ground such as a properly

grounded outlet box.

NOTE: Use of a temporary adapter is not permitted in Canada.

To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground.

A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should be provided on the circuit(s) or

outlet(s) to be used for the tile saw. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI

protections and may be used for this measure of safety.

When using an extension cord, the GFCI should be installed closest to the power

source, followed by the extension cord and lastly, the saw.

To avoid the possibly of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the

Tile Saw to one side of a wall mounted receptacle. This will prevent water from

dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A "drip loop," shown in FIGURE 2, should be

arranged by the user to properly position the power cord relative to the power

source.

The "drip loop" is that part of the cord below the level of the

receptacle, or the connector, if an extension cord is used.

This method of positioning the cord prevents the travel of

water along the power cord and coming in contact with the

receptacle.

If the plug or receptacle gets wet, DO NOT unplug the cord.

Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to

the tool. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in

the receptacle.

To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not

touch the plug with wet hands.

SAFETY:

Use only extensions cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension

cords are identified by a marking "Acceptable for use with outdoor appliances;

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 cords before using and replace if damaged. Do not

abuse extension cords and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cords

away from heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect extension cords from the

receptacle before disconnecting the product form the extension cord.

Use of undersize extension cords results in low voltage to the motor that can

result in motor burnout and premature failure. MK Diamond warns that

equipment returned to us showing signs of being run in a low voltage condition,

with undersized extension cord, will be repaired or replaced totally at the

customers expense. There will be no warranty claim

To choose the proper extension cord,

• Locate the length of extension cord needed in TABLE 1 below.

• Once the proper length is found, move down the column to obtain the correct

AWG size required for that length of extension cord.

As an example, a fifty (50) foot extension cord would require an AWG size of 16.
