The Slot on the Cutter Base
On the cutter base, there are a few sets
of the slot used for the stopper
attachment. Always use the slots closer
to the pivot of the blade according to
the width of the plank. The closer to the
pivot of the blade, the more cutting
power you will get.
Free Angle Cut
Mark a line of the floor plank and
remove the stopper attachment from
the cutter base. Line up the blade with
the line marked on the plank, then push
down the blade by using the handle.
The small teeth located along the
cutting slot will keep the laminate plank
from slipping. If the cut is longer than
20cm (8 inch) it is recommended to
make a few cuts with the increment of
5cm (2 inch) for each cut in order to
follow the marked cutting line. After
making each cut pull the handle back
up. Slide the cut portion of the flooring
towards the pivot of the blade and cut
again. Repeat the procedure until the
full length of the cut is completed.
Straight Cut
Place the flooring plank onto the cutter
base and position the stopper in the
appropriate slot at the required length.
Then push down the blade by using the
handle. The cutter is designed to cut
through laminate pieces by removing a
small amount of laminate.
Please note that a slightly rough edge
is normal. The cut edge will meet the
wall and be covered by a molding (a
base board or a quarter-round).
