Types of Cuts (Fig. A, S)
Always do a practice run to acquaint yourself with the path
of the blade. Practice on a scrap tile to ensure that you are
comfortable with the feel of the cutting operation. Push the
cart past the blade before turning the saw on.

Straight Cuts

1. Using a marker or grease pencil, mark the area to be cut
on tile.
2. Place the tile on the cutting cart against the cutting cart
fence

and align your mark with the blade.
3. Pull the on/off switch up to turn the saw on and wait for
the blade to be completely covered with water.
4. Ease the cutting cart toward the blade then slowly feed
the tile into the blade. Continue pushing until the blade
cuts completely through the tile.
nOTE: The flip hood on the splash hood can be rotated
up to help align the line on the tile with the blade.
5. Turn off the saw.

Diagonal Cuts

Diagonal cuts are also referred to as "long point to long
point cuts."
1. Install the edge guide.
2. Align the point of the tile closest to the cutting cart
fence 
with the cut indicator

3. Align the front of the tile to the blade and hold against
the edge guide.
4. Turn the saw on and make the cut.

L-Cuts
An L-cut is a section that is removed from of a piece of tile
and is used when cutting a piece of tile to fit in a corner of a
cabinet or piece of trim molding.
1. Outline the area to be cut on both sides of the tile.
2. Align the tile to the cutting cart fence and make the cut
far enough into the tile without overcutting.

3. Make a cut on the other mark on the tile without overcutting.
4. Turn the tile over and make the cut along one of the
outlines, but this time an overcut can occur without
damaging the exposed surface of the tile due to the
radius of the blade. Overcut the other line and the cut
piece should be separate from the rest of the tile.
5. Turn off the saw.
