Assembly Instructions

2.Screw the Knob (22) clockwise onto the Breaking Bar until it is tightly in place.
Operating Instructions
1.Mark the cut line on the tile with a soft carpenter’s pencil.
2.Loosen the Try Square Knob (23) and slide the Try Square out so there is room for the tile.
3.With the glazed side up, place the tile against the Ruler Bar (7), with the pencil line directly under the Cutting Wheel (16).
4.Slide the Try Square to the edge of the tile and tighten the Try Square Knob.
Note: Once the Try Square is secured at the desired setting, you can make multiple cuts of the same size without marking the cut line on the tile.
5.Holding the tile firmly, score along the pencil line with the Cutting Wheel several times across the pencil line.
6.Raise the Breaking Bar (21), and position the tile so that the front edge of the pencil line is lined up with the center of the Breaking Foot (20).
7.Holding the Knob (22), press down firmly to split the tile along the scored pencil line.
Note: The scoring action occurs by moving the Carriage (14) from the back to the front each time and pressing down slightly. At the end of the motion, raise the Breaking Bar, and move it backwards. Repeat this action several times, depending on the thickness of the tile, until a scored line appears.
