WATER TUBING REMOVAL 
Plastic tubing connects the water pump to the blade 
guard. The fittings used to connect this tubing seal and 
grip the outside diameter of the tubing. Special internal 
locking fingers attached to the flanged collet hold the 
tubing fast. To clean the water tubing requires the 
tubing to be removed from the fittings. To release the 
tubing form the fitting, fully depress the collet before 
pulling the tube out of the fitting. When you press 
down on the collet you are opening the locking fingers 
and freeing the tubing to be easily removed. 
 
WATER TRAY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION 
THE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF THE 
WATER TRAY IS EASY. See Fig 2 above
• 
First turn off the saw and unplug the power cord.  
Do the same for the water pump. 
• 
Then remove water pump from tray. 
• 
Then take frame and motor assembly out of the 
water tray. 
• 
Take tray and drain water and contents (sediment) 
• 
To install simply reverse this process. 
 
NOTE:
 
THERE ARE NO ADJUSTMENTS TO WATER 
TRAY 
 
 
5. Alignment 
Procedures
 
 
Your FTS-150 tile saw is factory assembled and 
aligned prior to shipment to ensure accurate cuts 
when your saw is delivered.  However, since FELKER 
can not control rough handling during shipping, it is 
suggested that the alignment be checked.  If the saw 
is found in need of adjustment, refer to the appropriate 
section(s) below. 
There are two basic alignment checks for the saw 
and any adjustments made must follow these 
procedures to ensure that the unit functions freely. 
Adjustment tools required: Carpenter’s Square and 
the multi-wrench provided with your new saw. 
 
1.  Check the Blade in Slot Alignment 
• 
The blade should be centered in the conveyor 
cart slot. 
• 
Set-up your saw as described above, move the 
conveyor cart back and forth form the front to 
the rear of the pan.  If the blade contacts either 
side of the slot, the Cart Slot Location 
Adjustment must be performed. 
Cart Slot Location Adjustment (See Diagram 1) 
• 
Move the Conveyor Cart so the Blade is 
approximately midway between the front and 
back of Cart. Loosen the two Roller Guide Bar 
fasteners (Item 5) [Use the 10mm & 16mm 
ends of wrench (Item 51)] on end fasteners. 
Move the adjustment clamp, Roller Guide Bar 
(Item 5) and Cart together until the blade is 
centered in the slot. Tighten the fasteners. It is 
recommended that the Parallel Alignment in 
step 2 be checked to insure the best quality 
cuts. 
 
2.  Check the Parallel Alignment 
• 
The conveyor cart must travel parallel to the 
plane of the flat blade. 
• 
Place a square rule against the backstop, 
lightly in contact with the blade.  The blade 
surface should be parallel to the square; i.e., no 
gap between the blade and the square at either 
the front or back edge of the blade.  Next, 
holding the square firmly traverse the cart fore 
and aft.  The blade should remain parallel to 
the square, staying slightly in contact with it 
throughout its full travel.  If the blade does not 
stay in contact with the square, the Parallel 
Alignment must be performed. 
 
Parallel Alignment (See Diagram 1) 
• 
Loosen the front two Roller Guide fasteners 
(Item 5). Move the Roller Guide Bar (item 5) 
and Cart by the Adjustment Clamp until the 
square is flush with the blade. Tighten the 
fasteners and recheck the alignment again. 
The cart should now travel parallel to the blade 
and the blade should be centered in the slot. 
 
6. Maintenance
 
 
 
Before performing any maintenance, 
ALWAYS place the machine on a level 
surface with the motor OFF and 
disconnect the electrical current. Let 
the machine cool down!! 
 
 
FOR LONGEST LIFE AND BEST PERFORMANCE 
• 
Always clean the saw after every use. 
• 
Wipe all of the exterior sediment or dirt off the 
motor.  Never spray water directly onto the 
motor!
 
• 
Wipe all exterior surfaces and keep the cutting 
table clean and free of all debris. 
• 
Wipe the roller guide bar on the frame. 
• 
Always check the blade for cracks or signs of 
damage.
