I have a table saw style tile saw I've used for years and recently
purchased a Husky tile saw with the motor mounted above. My question
involves the water supply that wets (or in this case does not) the blade.
The table saw style saws blade ran through a tub of water wetting the
blade, and slinging water at me. The Husky saws water supply is behind and
above the blade and does not, even after several modifications wet the
blade. The RPM of the blade "blows" the water into the blade guard and it
drips onto the tile, essentially dry cutting the tile. Any ideas? Should
I just return it to HD? What model/brand over arm saw would you
reccommend?

Thanks

I most likely would return it. What you describe can not be proper.

My el cheapo, blade above a sliding table from Harbor Fright uses a fork
like affair to deposit the water onto both sides of the moving blade at
something between the 4 and 5 clock position. It does sling water forward
and away from the user.
