8. DO NO FORCE THE SAW. It will perform better and more safely at the rate as designed.
9. USE THE AW PROPERLY. Do not force the bridge saw to do a job that it is no designed for.
10. USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. Table 1 Shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The samller the guage number,
the heavier the cord.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Read all of the instructions before opearting this bridge saw, and keep them in a safe place
for future reference.
A. GROUD INSTRUCSTION
1. IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDWON, grounding provides a path of
least resisdtance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This saw is equipped
with an electric cord that properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
2. Do not modigy the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a quilified elecrician.
3. improper connection of the grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding conductor to a live terminal.
4. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the saw properly grounded.
5. Use only 3-2ire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles
that accept the saw plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cords immediately.
6. THIS SAW IS INTENDED FOR USE ON A CIRCUIT that has an outlet that looks like the one
6. THIS SAW IS INTENDED FOR USE ON A CIRCUIT that has an outlet that looks like the one
illustrated in Sketch A of Figure 1. The saw has a ground plug that looks like the plug illustrated
Page 02

in the Sketch A of Figure 1. A temporary adapter, which looks kike the adapter illustrated in
Sketch B and C, may be used to connect to this plug to 2-pole receptacle as shown is Sketch B
if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly ground 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 permanent ground such as
a properly outlet box.

B. POSITION OF BRIDGE SAW
1. To avoid the possibility of the applicance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the saw to
one side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug.
one side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug.
The user should arrange a "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.
2. If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DON'T unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit
breaker that supplies power to the saw, then unplug and examine for the prsence of water in
the receptacle.

C EXTENSION CORDS
1. Use only extension cords that are internded for outdoor use. These extension cores are
indentified by a making " Acceptable for use with outdoor applicances, store indoors while
not in use". Use only recommended extension cords. Do not use damaged extension cords.
Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not use damaged
extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cords and 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 disconnected 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 the plug with wet hands.
3. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit (s) to
be used for the saw. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and may
be used for this measure of safety.
D. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY READ THE OWNER'S MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING.
*** Wear eye protection.
*** Keep blade safety guard in place.
*** Disconnect the saw before servicing, when changing diamond blades and cleaning.
*** Make certain that you use the appropriate blade for the material that you are cutting.
*** Replace damaged blades before operating.
*** Replace damaged blades before operating.
*** Do not fill water tray above the max water filling line.
E. SPECIFIC OPERATION GUIDE
1. Ensure that the direction arrow marked on the blade corresponds with the rotational
direction of the motor.
2. With the saw disconnected from the power supply, rotate the blade by hand to ensure
it is free from obstruction.
3. Always keep the blade-securing arbor and collars clean.
4. Ensure that the blade-securing bolt is securely tightened.
5. Never try to cut freehand. Always ensure that the tile to be cut is pressed firmly against
the rip fence.
6. Ensure that the workpiece that will be cut off has sufficient room move sideways Failure
to do so may result in the off-cut binding against the blade.
7. Never cut more than one tile at a time.
8. Never cut pieces too small that are not held securely against the rip against the rip fence,
and provide enough space for the hand to be a safe distance from the blade.
9. Ensure that the table and surrounding area are clear with the exception of the tile to be cut.
10. Before cuttin a tile piece, let the saw blade run freely for a few seconds. If it makes an
unfamiliar sound or vibrates excessively, switch it off immediately and disconnect it from the
power supply.
11. Let the blade reach full speed before commencing the cut.
12. Let the blade come to a complete stop before removing any jammed material from around
12. Let the blade come to a complete stop before removing any jammed material from around
the blade area.

SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING BRIDGE SAW
Checking the following areas:
1. Does the voltage motor correspond to the main voltage?
2. A grounded main connection (wall socket) needs to be used.
3. Are the main lead and plug in good condition without any loose ends or damage?
While using the saw:
1. Never use-cracked diamond blades, replace them.
2. Be sure that the switch is in the OFF (O)-position before connecting the saw
to the main voltage.
3. Always keep away the main lead from moving parts of the saw.
4. Do not apply side-pressure to the diamond blade. It can bread the blade and cause harm.
A. Avoid using long extension cores
IMMEDIATELY SWITCH OFF THE SAW IN CASE OF:
B. Always place the saw on a flat surface to prevent it from tipping over.
1. Excessive sparking of the brushes.
2. Malfunction of the main plug, socket or damaged cables.
3. Broke switch.
4. Smoke or smell caused by scorched insulation.
