(500 mm) tile. The cut is longer than the cart and at the
start of the cut, the blade will not pick up any water from
the slot in the cart.
•
Turn the water knob slightly to redirect water to the blade.

When reaching the slot in the cart, the water to the blade can
be shut off in order to keep the area as clean as possible.
