Operación
Follow these steps for effective and safe tile cutting.
- Preparar el azulejo: Clean the tile surface. Mark the desired cut line clearly with a pencil or marker.
- Colocar el mosaico: Place the tile on the base plate, aligning the marked cut line with the cutting wheel's path. Ensure the tile rests firmly against the anti-slip support and the adjustable stop.

- Position the cutting wheel at the edge of the tile furthest from you.
- Apply firm, consistent downward pressure on the cutting handle.
- Push the cutting handle smoothly and steadily across the tile towards you in a single, continuous motion. Do not make multiple passes. A distinct scoring sound should be heard.

- Once the tile is scored, position the breaking foot (part of the cutting head) directly over the scored line, near the edge of the tile closest to you.
- Apply quick, firm downward pressure on the cutting handle. The tile should snap cleanly along the scored line.
- For diagonal cuts, use the angle guide and ensure the tile is securely placed.

Mantenimiento
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your tile cutter.
- Limpieza: After each use, clean the base plate, guide rails, and cutting head to remove tile dust and debris. Use a dry cloth or brush.
