hello all first post and question
i have got alot of tiling to do all in about 150 m2 so went and got my self a 750mm sigma tile cutter the thing is that the cut and break is not as neat as my 400mm ishil cutter
am i doing something wrong or just being to fussy

Hi Glenn

What type and thickness of tile are you trying to cut? I assume it's a floor tile seeing as it's 150m2

Also where are you placing the breaker when snapping?

hello Colour Republic

i am cutting floor and wall

the thickness is 8mm floor 10mm wall

have tryed the breaker in lots of different positions

i did find that a bit less pressure when cutting seemed to help

Start with the breaker at the front edge of the tile then if it offers too much resistance mover the breaker along the tile to open the split up, too much pressure and it won't break cleanly, in addition the cutting wheel may be blunt so worth checking that too.

It really comes down to technique and the type and size of the tile, different techniques work with different types of tiles so a bit of trail and error could be your answer

i did think about cutting wheel but the machine is new but could be a duff wheel so will try a new wheel

and yes did think technique so will try try and try again

i have 150m2 to get the technique right

thanks for the reply

i own a sigma 3b 630mm pull cut...fantastic cutter,takes a while to get use to the pull action but once u have its perfection!
