1.3 Safety instructions for particular operating phases
Before commencing work
•Before commencing work, make yourself familiar with the working environment at the place of
use. The working environment includes: obstacles in the area of work and manoeuvre, the
firmness of the floor, necessary protection at the site relating to public thoroughfares and the
availability of help in the event of accidents.
•Site the machine on an even, firm and stable base!
•Check for correct mounting of the blade regularly.
•Immediately remove damaged or badly worn blades, as they endanger the operator whilst
rotating.
•The material to be cut must be held securely in place on the table to allow no unexpected
movement during cutting operation.
•Always cut with the blade guard in position.
•Only fit CLIPPER diamond blades with continuous rim to the machine! The use of other tools
can damage the machine!
•Read the blades’ specifications carefully to choose the correct tool for your application.
•Attention is drawn to the use of BS2092 safety goggles in conformity with specified Processes
No.8 of the Protection of Eyes Regulation 1974, Regulation 2(2) Part 1.
Electrical powered machine
•Always turn off the machine and separate it from the main source of electricity before any work
on the machine is done.

3 Assembly and commissioning
The machine is delivered fully equipped. It is ready for operation after assembly the diamond blade,
the blade guard and the guide-a-cut, and after connection to the appropriate power supply.
3.1 Tool assembly
Only CLIPPER continuous rim blades with a maximum diameter of 200 mm can be used with the
TT200EM.
All tools used must be selected with regard to their maximum permitted cutting speed for the
machine’s maximum permitted rotation speed.
Before mounting a new blade into the machine, switch off the machine and isolate it from the main
source of electricity.
To mount a new blade, follow these steps:
•Loosen the two screws on the side of the blade protection remove the front cover.
•Loosen the hexagonal nut which holds the removable outer flange on the blade shaft with the
19mm wrench and the special tool to lock the flange.
•Remove the outer flange.
•Loosen the two screws holding the blade guard support and remove it from the machine.
•Clean the flanges and blade shaft and inspect for wear.
•Mount the blade on the flange ensuring that the direction of rotation is correct (check with the
arrow on the blade guard). Wrong direction of rotation blunts the blade quickly.
•Replace outer blade flange.
•Tighten hexagonal nut.
•Retighten the two screws holding the front cover, and reassemble the blade guard support on
the table.
The blade bore must correspond exactly to the diameter of the blade shaft. Cracked or damaged
bore is dangerous for the operator and for the machine.
3.2 Guide-a-cut assembly
To assemble the guide a cut:
•Put the guide a cut on the table.
•Use the handle on the side of the guide-a-cut to pinch it on the table
3.3 Electrical connections
Check that,
•the voltage/phase supply corresponds to the information indicated on the motor plate.
•Available power supply must have ground connection in conformity with safety regulations.
•The connecting cables should have at least a 2.5mm
2
-section per phase.
3.4 Starting the machine
Press the green button to start the machine. Press on the red button to stop the machine. The red
button is also the emergency switch.

11
3.5 Water cooling system
•Fill the water pan with clean water up to 5mm from the upper edge of the water tray.
•Ensure that water is delivered adequately to both sides of the blade, as insufficient water supply
may result in premature failure of the diamond blade.
•Always make sure that there is enough water in the pan and refill if necessary.
•In case of frost, empty the water cooling system from its water.

12
4 Transport and storing
4.1 Securing for transport
Before transporting the machine, always remove the blade and empty the water pan.
4.2 Long period of inactivity
If the machine is not going to be used for a long period, please take the following measures:
•Completely clean the machine
•Empty the water system
The storage site must be clean, dry and at a constant temperature.

5 Operating the machine
5.1 Site of work
5.1.1 Siting the machine
•Remove from the site anything, which might hinder the working procedure!
•Make sure the site is sufficiently well lit!
•Observe manufacturer's conditions for connecting to power supplies!
•Place electric cables in such a way that damage by the device is excluded!
•Make sure you have a continual adequate view of the working area so you can intervene in the
working process at any time!
•Keep other staff out of the area, so you can work securely.
5.1.2 Space required for operation and maintenance
Leave 2 m around the machine for usage and maintenance of the TT200EM.
5.2 Cutting methods
To use the machine correctly, you must face it with the two hands on the tile to be cut, pushing the
tile against the blade. Always keep your hands away from the moving blade.
To set the guide-a-cut at the desired cutting width, release it, and use the two scales on the table to
align the guide. Then tighten it back.
5.3 General advice for the cutting
•Only tiles with max. dimensions 400x400x6mm and max. weight 3kg can be cut with the
machine.
•Before commencing work make sure tools are firmly seated!
•Select the right tools as recommended by the manufacturer depending on the material to be
worked, the working procedure (dry or wet cut) to be carried out and the required efficiency.
•Make sure the water tray contains enough water.
•Set the guide-a-cut to the desired width of cut, using the two engraved measurements to align it
correctly.
•Do not force on the motor. This machine is not designed for a continuous use.
