OPERATION
Electric shock protection
The power cord of the tile cutter includes a Residual Current Device (RCD) (6),
which protects the user against electric shock by interrupting the circuit when a
leakage current of 10 mA or greater is detected.
1.
If the On/Off trigger (2) does not switch on
the tool, press the RESET (8) on the RCD (6).
2.
The LED (7) on the RCD (6) should light up
confirming power is connected to the tool
(fig. 9).
3.
You can test the RCD (6) by pressing the
TEST (9) whilst the tool is running. The
power circuit should be broken and the tile
cutter will stop operation.
WARNING!
Do not use the tool if the RCD (6) does not function properly.
For the RCD to work, the tool must be connected to an earthed power
supply.

WARNING!
If in the test mode the RCD (6) does not break the circuit, DO
NOT USE THE TOOL. Never use the RCD as a mains switch.
On/off trigger (2)
Always firmly hold the tool by handle (4) during operations. The tile cutter is fitted
with a lock-off button (1) to avoid accidental start up.
1.
First press and hold the lock-off button (1),
then squeeze the On/off trigger (2) to start
the tool. Hold the trigger in this position for
continuous use (fig. 8).
Note:
Once the tool has started, you can
release the lock-off button (1).
2.
To stop the tool, simply release the on/off
trigger (2).
