A tile saw includes a base, a frame supported on the base, a sliding table supported on the frame, an arm mounted to the frame, and a rotary saw mounted to the arm for cutting tile or other masonry products placed on the sliding table. The table includes rollers which ride inside substantially enclosed tracks on the frame. The substantially enclosed tracks prevent fluid from reaching the tracks and the rollers and prevent deposits of sludge from forming on the tracks and rollers and hampering the smooth movement of the sliding table. Also, because the rollers ride in enclosed tracks, the table is stable and does not tip relative to the tile saw. Also, the table can be easily removed from the tile saw when a locking assembly is unlocked. The base includes an integral reservoir and is hollow for increased rigidity. A blade guard pivots to a position to provide access to the saw blade, and includes an improved clamping mechanism.
