Maintenance Tips

• Clean after every use: Remove tile dust, slurry, and adhesive residue from clamp pads and aluminum arms to maintain strong, even pressure on tiles.
• Inspect clamping pads: Check rubber/soft contact surfaces for wear or glazing—replace if they lose grip to avoid tile slippage during cutting.
• Keep sliding mechanisms smooth: Ensure clamp arms and adjustment points move freely and are free of debris for accurate positioning.
• Tighten all fasteners: Regularly verify bolts and locking knobs so the system holds tiles firmly without shifting under cutting load.
• Avoid overtightening: Apply firm but controlled pressure to prevent tile stress or micro-cracks, especially on porcelain and large-format slabs.
• Protect alignment with laser guide: Keep the clamp system aligned with the saw’s overhead laser for consistent, precise cuts.
• Store clean & dry: Wipe metal parts dry after use to prevent corrosion and keep adjustment points responsive.
