SAFETY RULES
1. Use only extension 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 cord before using and replace if damaged. Handle
extension cords carefully; do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord
away from heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension cord from
the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.
2. WARNING - To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and
off the ground. Do not touch plug with wet hands.
3. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the
circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for the tile saw. Receptacles are available
