1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
pWARNING! DO NOT cut any materials containing asbestos.
pWARNING! Before each use check cutting disc is not worn or damaged, if so replace immediately. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised
parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
pWARNING! The cut edge of the workpiece will be very sharp.
pWARNING! Cut tiles can produce very sharp shards of glazed ceramic.
8DO NOT force the tile cutter to achieve a task it was not designed to perform.
8DO NOT use the tile cutter for any purpose other than for which it is designed.
8DO NOT allow children to operate the tile cutter.
8DO NOT operate the tile cutter if any parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or possible personal injury.
8DO NOT over press on the down handle in order to etch the glaze. Maintain a controlled adequate progression, which will ensure an even score
through the glaze and avoid unnecessary wear on the blade.

break the tile).
