cuts.
Use a sturdy workbench, or else place the machine on the floor to increase your leverage.
Making a straight cut.
Cutting Wheel & Tile Breaker
.
1. Mark the desired cut on each tile piece using a grease pencil or washable marker.
2. Lift the Handle, and place the tile on the EVA Cushion against the Graduation Ruler and Try
Square.
3. Align the mark on the tile with the direction of movement of the cutting wheel, and position the
tile so the cutting wheel will move along the mark.
Setting the Graduated Rule.
4. Lift the handle until the Cutting Wheel contacts the tile at one edge of the tile. While pulling up,
move the handle so the cutting wheel rolls along the tile from edge to edge, scoring the tile along
the marked line.
5. After scoring the tile, slide the handle back until the Breaking Part is centered over the tile, and
lower the handle to press the Breaking Part onto the tile. Be sure that the score is aligned with the
center line of the tile cutter, and the breaking part is in approximately the center of the tile, straddling
the score.
6. Press the Handle down in a steady pressure until the tile breaks. Remove the broken pieces
Using the Try Square.
Using the Graduated Rule to Make Angled Cuts.
1. Lift the Handle. Loosen the Wing Nut on the Graduated Ruler. Turn the Graduated Ruler to the
desired cutting angle. Read the angle by comparing the markings on the ruler with the arrow marker.
2. When the desired angle has been set, re-tighten the Wing Nut.
3. Place the tile against the graduated ruler, and proceed to cut as described above. The resulting
cut will be at the pre-set angle.
Using the Try Square to Cut Tiles to a Measured Width, and to Make Repeatable Cuts of the
Same Width.
1. Loosen the Clamp, and slide the Try Square to the desired width of the finished cut tile. You
may read the finished dimension by comparing the scale markings on the Try Square to the arrow
on the tool. Retighten the Clamp.
2. Place the tile against the Graduation Ruler, and against the Try Square. Cut the tile in the usual
way. You can make repeated cuts of the same size, if desired.
3. You may also mark a tile for a desired width, place it on the cutter, and adjust the try square
against the edge of the tile. Additional tiles may then be cut to the same dimension.
TIP: Do not cut too many tiles to the same size without test installing them in your workplace.
Small variations in actual construction of walls, floors, and counter tops which may not be
immediately apparent may require you to adjust the cut dimension of tiles as you work.
