6. Installation
• First assemble the table frame [J]. Place the top part upside down on the floor (narrow edge of L-
shaped frame facing down: ┌ ┐ ) and mount on each corner a leg with 4 bolts (screw hand tight).
• Place a rubber foot on each of the four legs.
• Turn the table frame upright (resting on the 4 rubber feet).
• Tighten all the bolts firmly and verify that the table frame is stable.
• Place the frame on a level, steady, non-slippery surface.
• Place the water reservoir on the frame.
• Locate the position of the water pump [L] in the water reservoir. Place the pump [L] as shown in the
illustrations on page 2 and press it down until it snaps into place.
• Fill the water reservoir, making sure that the pump inlet is completely under water. Do not operate the
tile cutter with an empty reservoir or too low water level.
• Place the table with adjustable bridge [B] on top of the water reservoir. Make sure the cables from the
water pump [L] are not squeezed.
7. Operation
• Always wear safety goggles, safety gloves and ear protection when operating the tile cutter!
• Make sure the On/Off switch [A] is in the off-position and connect the power cord to the mains.
• Place a tile against the graduated ruler [F] or use the tile positioner with adjustable angle [C] to place
the tile under an angle. Loosen the lateral lock knobs [C1] to move the positioner lateral, loosen the
angular lock knob [C3] to set the desired angle and tighten the knob [C3]. Place a tile against the tile
holding edge [C2] and tighten the lateral lock knobs [C1] to secure the tile position.
• Make sure the cutting disk [I] doesn’t touch the tile and switch on the tile cutter by pressing the on/off
switch [A]. Wait a few seconds to allow the disc to reach full speed. Make sure that water is sprayed on
the disc. If not, switch off the machine and check the water level and pump [L].
