firmly, e.g. on a work bench, or it must be bolted
to a strong base.
All covers and safety devices have to be properly
fitted before the machine is switched on.
It must be possible for the diamond wheel to run
freely.
Before you actuate the ON/OFF switch, make
sure that the diamond wheel is correctly fitted
and that the machineʼs moving parts run
smoothly.
Before you connect the machine to the power
supply, make sure the data on the rating plate is
the same as that for your mains.
Before using the machine, check all of the parts
for damage and replace any parts that are
damaged. When replacing any parts or

instructions in this manual.
For optimum performance and maximum safety,
keep the machine clean at all times.

correctly fitted.
Important! The tile cutting machine is
designed for use with water.
Check that the water level is high enough to
cover the diamond part of the wheel each time
before you start a cutting operation and keep
checking it during cutting as well. Fill/refill the
cooling water directly into the trough.
