Square cuts are easy with RevealCut. With the tile set flush against the tile stop and the
rear end of the tile aligned with the desired measurement on the ruler, you are assured
a straight, accurate cut every time. But walls and grids often can be out of square. This
requires a change in the cutting procedure.
ƒ Begin with both cutting cars at the top of
the rails.
ƒ Set jig stops to desired measurements
on the top ruler and bottom ruler.
(Fig.
The
10)
measurement is set at top ruler. The
left side grid measurement is set at
bottom ruler.
ƒ Place tile finished face up on the
platform.
ƒ Align the rear of the tile so that it is flush
with the preset jig stops instead of the
tile stop. This will offset the tile to the
correct dimensions. Do not use tile
stop for out-of-square cuts.
ƒ Use your hand to hold tile down gently
on platform.
ƒ Grasp long handle of sizing car and pull
sizing blade down to the bottom of the
rail. Make a complete pass. There is no
need to try to cut the tile in a single pass.
For many mineral fiber tiles you will
need to make two or up to three passes
of the sizing blade to cut completely
through the tile. This is normal.
Fiberglass tiles will usually require only
a single pass.

ƒ On final sizing pass, leave sizing car on
bottom of rails, opposite the profile car.
ƒ Next, make a single pass with the profile
car to finish the tile edge.
ƒ Remove tile.
ƒ Return profile car to top of rail.
