Additional safety rules
when using water
cooling system
The Sliding Tile Cutting Saw
has been fitted with a Residual
Current Device (RCD) safety
switch designed to immediately
switch the electricity off if a fault
is detected to avoid
the risk of a potentially
fatal shock.
WARNING . To be
effective, the RCD
must ALWAYS be
in good working
condition. (see
‘Testing your safety
switch’ for further
details).
• The RCD device is not designed for outdoor use,
INDOOR USE ONLY
• Electricity can be dangerous, the use of an RCD device
should not be regarded as a substitute for basic electrical
safety precautions
• You must unplug all equipment to achieve isolation before
any inspection or repair of that equipment is attempted
• Please seek advice from an electrical contractor or
a GMC Technical service person if the RCD device
repeatedly trips, or fails to trip in accordance with the
instructions provided
• Never immerse your RCD device in water, and do not
expose the unit to rain
• Do not connect your RCD device to an extension cord
• You must take proper care of your RCD device, take care
not to drop it on hard surfaces as it may crack and/or
damage the internal components
Testing your safety switch
IMPORTANT. Ensure the RCD is tested upon every use.
It is essential that the safety switch is tested to ensure it
is functioning correctly. We strongly recommend that this
procedure is conducted without fail before every use.
1. Plug your RCD device into a fixed 230-240Vac ~ 50Hz
power wall socket outlet and switch on.
WARNING . The RCD device should be connected directly to
a mains socket outlet only, never connect your RCD device
to an extension cord.
2. To set the RCD into the ON
position, press the green
“RESET” button. The “RED
ON” illuminator will then
transform from a clear colour
to a red colour.
3. Press the “TEST” button.
Doing this will make the RCD
device trip immediately, and
will remove the flow of power
to the connected appliance. It
then will change the “RED ON”
illuminator to a clear colour, if
this occurs it confirms that the
RCD device is operational.
If the RCD device does not trip
as per the explanation above,
please contact the GMC help line for assistance.
4. Upon tripping, you must reset RCD to the “ON” position.
Press the green “RESET” button, the “RED ON” illuminator
will transform from a clear colour to a red colour.
IMPORTANT. If your RCD device does not operate correctly
in accordance with the instructions provided, you must stop
using the device and contact the GMC help line.
