The tile cutting machine is designed for the
standard cutting of small and medium-size tiles
(glazed tiles, ceramic tiles or similar) which can
be accommodated by the size of the machine. It
should never be used for cutting wood or metal.
The machine should be used exclusively for
its intended purpose. Any other use is deemed

mage and/or injuries of any kind that result from
such misuse. The machine is to be operated
only with suitable cutting-off wheels. Saw blades
should never be used. Compliance with the sa-
fety instructions, the assembly instructions, and
advice and instructions on operation contained
in the operating instructions also falls under the
terms of intended use. All persons who use and
service the equipment have to be acquainted
with this manual and must be informed about the
machine's potential hazards. In addition, strict
compliance with the accident prevention regula-
tions in force in your area, as well as all other ge-
neral rules of health and safety at work, is impera-
tive. The manufacturer's liability shall be deemed
void if the machine is modifi ed in any way and the
manufacturer shall therefore accept no liability for
any damages arising as a result of modifi cations.
Even when the equipment is used as prescribed
it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual
