Упутство за употребу
Пратите ове кораке за ефикасно и безбедно сечење плочица:
1. Preparing the Tile
- Измери и означи: Accurately measure the tile and mark the desired cut line with a pencil or marker.
- Поставите плочицу: Place the tile on the cutter's bed, aligning the marked cut line with the scoring line indicator on the machine. Use the adjustable measuring bar to ensure precise alignment.
- Adjust Cutting Thickness: Use the cutting thickness adjustment mechanism to set the appropriate depth for your tile (0-19 mm). This ensures optimal scoring pressure.
2. Scoring the Tile
- Position Scoring Unit: Bring the scoring unit to the edge of the tile furthest from you.
- Примени притисак: Firmly grasp the NEX handle. Apply consistent, moderate downward pressure.
- Оцени плочицу: Push the scoring unit smoothly and steadily across the tile in a single, continuous motion towards you. A distinct scoring sound should be heard. Avoid multiple passes, as this can lead to a rougher edge.
3. Breaking the Tile
- Position Breaking Foot: Once the tile is scored, position the rotating breaking foot directly over the scored line, typically near the edge of the tile closest to you.
- Apply Breaking Pressure: Apply quick, firm, and even downward pressure on the NEX handle. The tile should snap cleanly along the scored line.
- Уклоните исечене делове: Carefully remove the two tile pieces. Be mindful of sharp edges.
