Working Advice
Cutting Tiles (see figures H1–H3)
– Insert the tile cutter 14 into the sawing slot of the guide rail
4 above stop 15.
The arrow on the tile cutter must face you.
– Pull the tile cutter 14 over the complete tile with uniform
pressure.
– Remove the tile cutter 14 from the guide rail 4.
– Turn the locking lever 10 of the guide rail leftward and fold
the guide rail 4 upward.
– Place the break-off cones 16 on a firm surface.
Place the tile on the break-off cones in such a manner that
the break-off cones are positioned below the cutting line
and at the edges of the tile.
For diagonal cuts, the break-off cones should be posi-
tioned below the cutting line and somewhat further toward
the inside.
– Apply both of your thumb balls at the same time to the out-
er sides of the tile until the tile breaks.
