Install the try square.
Depending on the model you purchased, the try square

front of the tool, or to the rear. Both versions work equally well.
The measuring scales on your tool also may be marked either in
millimeters or inches.

OpERATION
The basic cutting operation is accomplished by scoring the tile in the desired location, and breaking it.
This process is similar to scoring and cutting glass.
NOTE: It’s a good idea to make a few practice cuts on your tile before attempting to make finish cuts.
Use a sturdy workbench, or else place the machine on the floor to increase your leverage.
