RIP CUT
Place the tile at the front edge against the front stop (Fig 1). Position the
tile so the line of cut is directly over the scoring line, which is the line
between the left and right pad (Fig 2). Adjust the cutting guide by
loosening the guide knob (Fig 2) and sliding it left or right to the desired
cutting position, and lock the cutting guide in place.
DIAGONAL CUT
First loosen the guide knob and remove the cutting guide. Place the tile
at the desired angle.

MAKING THE CUT
Place the cutting wheel on the rear edge of the tile. Then slide the
wheel forward by pushing the handle down with medium pressure,
scoring the tile surface glaze as the handle is pushed forward (Fig 3)
.
It
is important to make one continuous motion, scoring the surface only
once per tile. After scoring, and without moving the tile, position the
handle so that the breaker foot is slightly in from the front edge of the
tile and front stop. Apply increasing pressure on the handle until the tile
snaps along the score line (Fig 4)
