How to use

Place the tile on a stable work surface and align the tile with the cutting guide. Adjust the guide to the desired measurement and lock it in position. Run the scoring wheel across the tile surface with consistent pressure to create a visible score line. After scoring, apply steady downward force on the tile on both sides of the score line or use the built‑in snapping mechanism (if present) to break the tile along the scored line. Inspect the cut edge and remove any small burrs with a rubbing stone or fine file if needed.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when scoring and snapping tiles. Ensure the scoring wheel is suitable for the tile material and replace it when worn to maintain clean scores. For very hard porcelain or large format tiles, perform test cuts to confirm pressure and technique before cutting multiple pieces.
