Have you been on the sigma thread I created? I can’t remember. The height adjustment has been mentioned a few times. Makes all the difference.

Thanks Antonio

So is the top of the bar supposed to sit central to that square when the breaker is resting on the tile?

I haven't, no. I didn't know there was one. So the top of the bar is supposed to sit just under the top of the square on the handle?

It looks like it.

I’ll be honest- I’ve not throughly read the instructions but I did adjust the height last week and it made all the difference. The cuts were far better. Give it a go.

The manual isn't great. It's just a series of pictures. So I've adjusted the bar and every break is just breaking off the corner of the tile :/

How far in from the end of the tile are you breaking and which corner is breaking near or far

Don’t forget to score back that first 15mm or whatever before you do your push score on the rest of the tile

about 10-20mm the near end closest to the T-bar and is breaking off mostly. Sometimes the far end.

Yup, been doing that every time. The manual also says to score the tile 2-3 times for tiles with rough surfaces (like the tiles I have) but it's just breaking off pieces of the slice I want to cut
