Abstract

The invention relates to a manual tile cutter comprising a support base (1), the short sides of which are provided with diverging walls (2) that extend upwards. Both ends of the longitudinal guides (3) for the cutting head are fixed inside said walls. The longer sides of the support base (1) are provided with flat flanges (8) which are mounted so that they can be pulled down during use, around horizontal rotation axes, into a horizontal position which is coplanar with the base (1), or pushed up into a vertical transport position which is perpendicular to the base (1).
