Norton Clipper Flexovit Tt200 - Tile Advice

[moomarine]

The hunt for a new tabletop wet saw goes on!! I recently posted a thread asking about the battipav queen 180 but I'm now onto this one. I have seen old posts about it but was wondering if anyone has one now and how long it has lasted and if it is any good. Saw some issues with the guide falling off but maybe this has been rectified on newer models?

How much do you do this cutter for? I would also be buying a decent blade.

Had my TT200EM for about a year it only ever gets used for kitchen tiles but as long as u keep it clean and dry after use I can see it lasting a very long time but then again I'm a tool nerd and I dry mine out next to the radiator and douse it with wd40 but my next small scale wet saw will be the sigma 9p to go with my 10m I don't think there's a better table top saw on the market then sigma

my 9p got hammered and still runs true to the last day i used it ! awesome wet saw

Think I'm going to go with the clipper for now. It's only to upgrade from a similar sized but underpowered eBay special that I got a while ago. Would love the 9p but don't have £800 to spare at the moment!

9p is being discontinued. You'll have to be fast.

Got the Norton Clipper tt200 in the end. Got good price on bigredtoolbox for £139 incl VAT. Also my concern about the guide being loose like in older threads is not a problem anymore. They must have fixed this issue because the guide is solid and not going anywhere. Have not tested it yet as only delivered today but wel see!

Put some grease on all the moving parts and make sure u let it dry out and regularly spray it well douse it with wd40 or gt 85 or they don't last 5 minutes

How old is your one? It seems they have changed a fair bit from looking at any of the bad reviews.

It's bang on a year old

So what has happened to it to need wd40 all the time? Is it not worth it then as I haven't used it yet and can return.

Nothing has happened to it coz I wd40 it after every job and clean it and leave it to dry in the house next to a radiator but if u didn't the bed tilt knobs and mechanism would rust very quickly like my last one did
