Taurus 3 Water Tub
#1032
DESCRIPTION
The Taurus 3 Water Tub, part number #1032, is the main reservoir for the Gemini Taurus 3 Ring Saw. It holds water around the blade during operation, providing:
Cooling and lubrication to reduce friction and heat buildup
Dust suppression, keeping the work area cleaner and safer
Stabilising the saw, as the removable working head snaps into the tub for secure operation
Key Features
Material: Rugged polycarbonate or reinforced plastic (commonly blue)
Water-Level Indicator: Moulded “watermark” on the front ensures correct fill—water should sit about halfway up the bottom pulley
Unique Snap-Out Design: Enables the saw’s working head to detach from the tub for handheld use, which enhances portability and convenience
Easy Maintenance: Removable tray simplifies cleaning and part replacement
Compatibility
Designed specifically for the Gemini Taurus 3 Ring Saw
Compatible with standard work surface and blade assemblies for this model
Why It’s Important
Maintaining the proper water level in the tub is critical:
Protects the saw’s bearings (especially in hard-water areas)
Enables both bench-top and handheld operation without additional parts
Ensures the longevity and performance of your saw
Installation & Care Tips
Fill to the “watermark” line before installing the saw head
Inspect and drain after use; clean regularly to prevent debris buildup
Replace if cracked or leaking—damage compromises water retention and saw stability
