SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Before mounting any blade to the Journeyman Tile Saw, the blade is to be inspected for any damage.
2. The shaft and flanges should be cleaned and examined for damage before mounting any blade.
3. When tightening the blade retaining bolt against the outer flange, be sure to tighten enough to hold the blade firmly
without slipping. Do Not over tighten.
4. Adequate coolant must be used for the blade.
5. During cutting the work piece must be held securely and prevented from twisting or slipping. The blade must not be
forced into the material with excessive pressure or force.
6. The blade guard must always be in place when the saw is running.
7. For your protection please wear safety glasses and hearing protection.
ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove the Journeyman Tile Saw from the shipping container. Included should be the saw (100000), owner’s
manual (this document), wrench (HWR09), slide tray (100490), and water pump (100650).
2. Place the Journeyman Tile Saw on a level surface.
3. Remove the blade shaft bolt and the outer flange.
4. Place the slide tray on the slide rails with the backstop closest to the operator.
5. Check to make sure the blade shaft, flanges, and blade are free of dirt, foreign matter, dents, and cracks. Place the
blade on the shaft, with the direction arrow of the blade-rotating counter clockwise when looking at the saw from the
operator’s right side.
6. Place the outer flange on the blade shaft with the larger side facing the blade.
7. Place and tighten the blade shaft bolt against the flange. Tighten the blade shaft bolt enough to hold the blade firmly
with out slipping. Do Not over tighten the blade shaft bolt.
8. Connect the water supply to the pump; fill the pan to cover the pump. If the pump does not work on first try, turn it on
its side and tap against the pan. Use the maximum amount of water practical. The coolant control will limit the flow of
water to the blade. And is to be used when housekeeping is an issue. The most common cause of the pump not
working is a small piece of tile caught in the impeller. Remove the shield over the impeller, remove the debris, and
replace the shield.
9. Connect the power supply to the power cord on the Journeyman Tile Saw. Extension cords if used should be at least
15 AMP and kept as short as possible. The saw may be run off a 3KW (3000-Watt) generator.
10. To clean the saw unplug it. Flush with clean water. Do Not immerse the saw in water. The motor is water resistant,
not waterproof. Run clear water through the pump at the end of each use.
