Safety Warnings for Tile Cutters

Use the tile cutter only for cutting the materials listed

under Intended Use. Marble or granite as well as tiles with

a rough surface structure and natural stone tiles cannot be

cut.

Keep your fingers clear of the movable parts of the tile

cutter. Danger of fingers being crushed or contused and

considerably injured.

Wear protective gloves when cutting tiles. Sharp edges

develop on broken tiles and can cause injuries to the oper-

ator.

When transporting the tile cutter, use only the handles,

tighten all loose components (fences, rulers), press

down the locking lever to lock the guide rail, and fix the

transport safety-lock (see figures 15 and 16). There is a

risk of injury if it falls down.
