Help with cutting issues.

[Colly]

Hi all,

I am a DIYer trying to tile my bathroom. I am using a Vertex versatile pro bridge saw with a new 3mm diamond blade. I'm trying to cut grade 1 porcelain 300 x 600 tiles. However, every cut i do I am getting deflection on the blade and going off course by up to 4mm then snapping the tile in the last 2cm. It dosent make any difference how hard/slow i pull the blade arm.

Anyone able to help with how I can resolve this.
Thanks
