Can someone shed a little light on the Sigma range for me please! I have tried to understand the model numbers but can't seem to work out which ones are push/pull/klick klock. If I'm going to try one it needs to be a push one, so which one is that? Thanks in advance from a Rubi user looking to settle the ongoing debate :lol:

here's a demo of a pull one, the 3b which i have. it really is easy to 'pull cut' [video=youtube;X9ylGVSHAYc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9ylGVSHAYc[/video]

This might sound stupid, but surely you can 'push' a 'pull' cutter, it'll just need pulling back to the front for the break.

Ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Busted!!!!!!!!! To be fair, the dewalt struggled with it as well (kept pushing the blade off line) I've kept a spare one to see if it's the cutter or if the tile is just a pig! 1 tile in nearly 12 months of the TX ain't bad though!

I tried that and it did'nt work for me, the pull handle has a smaller cutting wheel at the back and it has to be lifted and dragged...pushing became awkward and digs to much onto the tile.
