Key specifications
Operation: manual scoring and snapping
Material compatibility: ceramic and porcelain tiles
Design: portable and lightweight construction for easy transport
Cut type: straight cuts only
Suitable environment: indoor and sheltered outdoor use during tile fitting
How to use
Place the tile on the cutter base aligned with the guide and mark the cutting line. Position the scoring wheel at the start of the line and apply steady, even pressure while drawing the wheel along the tile to score the glaze. After scoring, use the tool's breaking mechanism to apply force evenly along the scored line until the tile snaps cleanly. For consistent results, score once with uniform pressure and ensure the tile is properly supported on the base before breaking.
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate eye protection and handle tiles carefully to avoid sharp edges. For very hard or thick porcelain tiles, consider multiple light scores rather than a single heavy pass. Keep the scoring wheel clean and inspect the tool before use to ensure accurate cutting. Store the cutter in a dry place to maintain mechanical components.
