STEPS FOR MAKING A DIAGONAL CUT:
Diagonal cuts can be made on rectangular tiles using the supplied angle gauge.
FIGURE 7 shows a typical set up for cutting the corner off a square tile.
STEPS FOR MAKING MITER OR 45 DEGREE CUTS:
The work table can be tilted up to 45 degrees to accommodate bevel cutting.
Loosen the knob on the front of the tile cutter as shown in FIGURE 8. Use the scale
on the front of the tile cutter to set the desired table tilt angle. Re-tighten the knob
to secure the table.
