To be honest i hope @3_fall can shed some light on this when you see him .
But to be honest some tiles will not just score and snap .

How can I attach a video?

I have been loosely following this thread over the last few days.
I say 'loosely' as I thought I had futureproofed myself a few years ago by getting a Sigma 3dm (900mm)
I went to have a look at a job on Friday night......1000mm Porcelanosa tiles........having to reread every post Doh!!

Easiest way is to upload to YouTube and post a link to it.
General threads can’t upload videos.
There’s only one forum that will, and that’s

HERE

But YouTube is still the best way because you can post video directly in to your post here.

IMHO, shouldn't need to study how to use a cutter.. My hatred for Sigma grows. But I have to at least try until I can cut these off cuts I have

paint it red and I'm sure it will work every time.

that's all I can contribute, I'll close the door on my way out...

It sounds like the cutter height or the wheel type isn't quite right, or and it is a big or........some tiles will just not snap on a dry cutter.
I've had it before.....a whole bathroom to 'wet cut' and even then not all cuts went to plan.

Apparently someone else has used the same tiles (smaller version) on a sigma and it was fine

If I knew there was a snapping issue,I would score the tiles a few times.
Try winding the bar down to the tile
