• Never cut tiles that are too small to leave sufficient room for the hand to guide the tile into the
blade. When cutting smaller tiles ALWAYS use a push-stick.
• Only ever fit cutting disks that are recommended in the manufacturer’s instruction manual.
• Before using the tile cutter, always allow the cutting blade to reach the correct speed and assess
whether the blade is running smoothly, with no unfamiliar sounds or vibrations. If unfamiliar
characteristics are noticed, switch the machine off immediately and unplug from the mains
before attempting to evaluate the situation.
• Do not use excessive pressure on the cutting disk; doing so will not speed up the cut, and will
only cause excessive wear to the machine.
• NEVER use the tile cutter without the aid of cooling water; the water will maintain blade
temperature and prevent premature failure.
