Abstract
A tile saw includes a saw unit having a motor and a saw blade driven by the motor, a table through which the saw blade at least partially protrudes, and a pan positioned underneath the table and including a channel configured to receive at least a portion of the saw blade. The channel extends along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to a rotational axis of the saw blade such that fluid moves through the channel in a first direction in response to rotation of the saw blade. An interior wall is positioned adjacent the channel. The interior wall is obliquely oriented relative to the longitudinal axis of the channel to redirect the fluid in a second direction that is different from the first direction.
