Question about Plasplugs Master Tiler - TilersForums.co.uk | Tile Forums

Bought a Plasplugs Master Tiler last week from B&Q (£78), and was wondering if anyone who has one can help me?

Put the blade on & tightened it up then rotated it by hand it just to see if I had it on right. If I look down the blade when rotating it , it wobbles from side to side, although is not loose.
However, when I turn it on it seems to run straight until of course I turn it off & it starts to slow down. Doesn't seem to affect the strightness of cuts. But is it normal for these cutters? Anyone else notice it?

Maybe I've not got the washers (holding blade) on in correct sequence. Anyone tell me how they are supposed to go on when fitting a blade. Any diagrams anywhere?

Thanks for any help.

When i first bought mine i had 3 that did that. I checked the last 2 i the store and the spotty little youth that was telling me i must have put the wheel on wrong had to admit there was a fault. Must have been a bad batch because i got another one but from Machine Mart (110volt) and thats been great.

The blade that came with my Master tiler is faulty, just will not fit onto the spool correctly and wobbles like mad.
I think the actual hole in the disc isn't a perfect circle, but Ive never got round to taking it back.

Theres only one washer, blade onto the spool, then the washer cover thingy, then the nut to tighten.
