1. SPECIAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
1. The tile cutting machine is fitted with a replaceable
circular blade. Therefore, keep children away.
2. After use the machine must be stored in a safe and
dry place, away from children.
3. This machine has been designed for cutting and
breaking glazed tiles, and must not be used for any
other purpose.
4. When using the tile cutting machine make sure to
keep extension leads and such away from the
machine.
5. Always place the tile cutting machine on a level and
firm surface.
6. CAUTION! The edges of cut tiles are sharp.
2. ASSEMBLY
Assemble the tile cutting machine as shown in the
drawing.
ASSEMBLY OF THE TILE CUTTING
MACHINE
Remove all the parts from the box and assemble the tile
cutting machine as follows:
1. Slide the black rubber feet (T) over the corners of
the tile cutter. Slide a washer onto the bolt and push
this into the rubber foot. Now slide a washer and a
2
nut over the bolt on the back and fasten this
properly. Repeat this for the other three corners.
2. Mount the fastening blocks (N) with the 2 tubes (M)
onto the bottom plate (V) using the 4 bolts (O) and
washers (P).
3. Screw the lever (H) onto the tube fastening (I).
4. Finally, mount the sash angle (U) onto the bottom
plate (V) using the knob (S) and washer.
ASSEMBLY OF THE HOLLOW SQUARE
CHISEL
1. Place the hollow square chisel above the hole in the
bottom plate (V).
2. Make sure that the clamping plate (E) comes under
the 2 tubes and fasten this using the socket head
wrench supplied. The socket head wrench is situated
in the black fastening plate (C).
3. It is important that the drill (G) and the knife (F) are
adjusted in such a way that they just touch the
bottom plate (V). This adjustment can be done using
the two nuts at the top of the hollow square chisel.
Then fasten these nuts against each other.
3. HOW TO CUT AND BREAK TILES
1. Use a soft-tipped (carpenter's) pencil to mark off the
cutting line.
2. Place the tile against the stop, the glazed side facing
upward. The pencil mark must be directly below the
blade.
3. Firmly hold the tile and cut several times (at least 4)
along the mark. After each cut, press the lever more
firmly.
4. Lift the lever when it has reached the front edge of
the tile and moved it backward.
5. Subsequently the break-off unit is lifted. Repeat along
the full width of the tile until the notch is sufficiently
deep.
The cutting movement results from moving the
lever from the back edge of the tile towards its
front, while lightly pressing the lever.
WALL TILES
(single baked)
Lift the lever and position the break-off unit in the middle
of the tile. Press the lever down and the tile will break.
FLOOR TILES
(double-baked):
Sometimes these much harder tiles cannot be cut in two
by means of the break-off unit (K) on the tile cutting
machine.
In these cases after making the notch the tile must be
broken in two by tapping the underside of the tile with a
light hammer along the full length of the notch. This way
the break line will spread through the tile, and cause the
tile to break in two along the line. By means of the wing
nut (Q) the angle of the stop can be adjusted.
MAKING HOLES BY MEANS OF THE (HAND)
DRILL
1. Mount the drill attachment including the drill over
the centre of the hole in the base. It is important that
