SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below

may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

The term “power tool” in the warning refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your

body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk

of electric shock.

3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as
dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before
plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or spanner before turning the power tool on. A spanner
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

ERBAUER 210MM (8-1/4”) SLIDING COMPOUND MITRE SAW

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables

better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can

reduce dust related hazards.

4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these
instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power

tool for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

HEALTH ADVICE

Warning! When drilling, sanding, sawing or grinding, dust particles will be
produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working
with, this dust can be particularly harmful to you (e.g. lead from old gloss paint).You are
advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working with and to
reduce the risk of exposure. You should:

-Work in a well-ventilated area.

-Work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed
to filter microscopic particles.

Safety instructions for all saws

a. DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second
hand on the handle, or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot

be cut by the blade.
b. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the
blade below the workpiece.
c. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth
of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece.

d. Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the
workpiece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize

body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

e. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with

a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and shock the
operator.
f. When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide. This improves the
accuracy of cut and reduces the chance of blade binding.

g. Always use blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbor
holes. Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run eccentrically,

causing loss of control.
h. Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers or bolt. The blade washers and bolt
were specially designed for your saw, for optimum performance and safety of operation.

Further safety instructions for all saws

Causes and operator prevention of kickback:

− kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an
uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator;

− when the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the blade stalls and
the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the operator;

− if the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the
blade can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the kerf
and jump back toward the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

a. Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your arms to resist
kickback forces. Position your body to either side of the blade, but not in line with
the blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can be

controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken.

b. When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the
trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a
complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take

corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.

c. When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf and
check that saw teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may

walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.

ERBAUER 210MM (8-1/4”) SLIDING COMPOUND MITRE SAW

d. Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large

panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on
both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of the panel.
e. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce
narrow kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.

f. Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers must be tight and secure before
making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
g. Use extra caution when making a “plunge cut” into existing walls or other blind
areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

Safety instructions for saws

a. Check the lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the
saw if the lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie
the lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, the lower guard

may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves
freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut.

b. Check the operation of the lower guard spring. If the guard and the spring are not
operating properly, they must be serviced before use. The lower guard may operate

sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy deposits, or a build-up of debris.

c. Lower guard may be retracted manually only for special cuts such as “plunge
cuts” and “compound cuts.” Raise the lower guard by retracting handle and as
soon as blade enters the material, the lower guard must be released. For all other

sawing, the lower guard should operate automatically.

d. Always observe that the lower guard is covering the blade before placing saw
down on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause the saw to walk

backwards, cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to
stop after switch is released.

or serious personal injury.

1. Know your power tool. Read operator’s manual carefully. Learn the applications
and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.

2. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields when using this mitre saw. Everyday
eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.

3. Always protect your lungs. Wear a face mask or dust mask if the operation is dusty.
Always use dust extraction equipment to minimise dust.

4. Always protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods
of operation.

5. Always inspect the tool cords periodically and if damaged have them repaired.
Always be aware of the cord location.

6. Always check for damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine if it will
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the tool’s operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced at a qualified service centre.

7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from
the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

8. Always make sure that your extension cord is in good condition. When using
an extension cord be sure to use one that is heavy enough to carry the current
that your tool will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting in loss of power and overheating.

9. Always inspect and remove all nails from lumber before sawing.

10. Do not use the tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any
medication. Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or serious

personal injury.

power tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shield and a
full face shield when needed.
Warning: If any parts are missing, do not operate your mitre saw until the
missing parts are replaced. Failure to follow this rule could result in serious
personal injury.

Caution: Do not let familiarity with your mitre saw make you careless. Remember that a
careless fraction of a second is sufficient to cause severe injury.

ERBAUER 210MM (8-1/4”) SLIDING COMPOUND MITRE SAW

Double insulation:

The tool is double insulated. This means that all the external metal parts are electrically
insulated from the mains power supply. This is done by placing insulation barriers
between the electrical and mechanical components making it unnecessary for the tool
to be earthed.

Important note
Be sure the supply is the same as the voltage given on the rating plate. The tool is fitted
with a two-core cable and plug. Remove the mains plug from socket before carrying out
any adjustment or servicing.

VIBRATION

The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive has been brought in to help reduce
hand arm vibration syndrome injuries to power tool users. The directive requires power
tool manufacturers and suppliers to provide indicative vibration test results to enable
users to make informed decisions as to the period of time a power tool can be used
safely on a daily basis and the choice of tool.Further Advice can be found
at www.hse.gov.uk

Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN 61029

Test specification; Standard = EN61029-1 2009.
Test prodcure GS mark.

Vibration emission value ah = 3.384m/s²

Uncertainty K = 1.5m/s²

The declared vibration emission value should be used as a minimum level should be used with the
current guidance on vibration.

Calculating the actual period of the actual period off use can be difficult and the HSE website has
further information.

The declared vibration emission been measured in accordance with a standardised test stated above
and may be used to compare one tool with another.

The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ

from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used
dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:­How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.
The tool being in good condition and well maintained
The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome
if its use is not adequately managed

Warning: identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts
of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is
running idle in addition to the trigger time).Note The use of other tools will reduce the
users’ total working period on this tool. Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk.

ALW AYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades. Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions
and keep well lubricated (where appropriate)
Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10C or less

14. Cutting base moulding

Base mouldings and many other mouldings can
be cut on a compound mitre saw. The setup of
the saw depends on moulding characteristics and
applications, as shown. Perform practice cuts on
scrap material. To achieve best results:

1) Always make sure mouldings rest firmly against
fence and table. Use hold-down or G-clamps,
whenever possible, and place tape on the area
being clamped to avoid marks.

2) Reduce splintering by taping the cut area prior
to making cut. Mark cut line directly on the tape.

3) Splintering typically happens due to wrong
blade application and thinness of the material.
Note: Always perform a dry run cut so you can
determine if the operation being attempted is
possible before power is applied to the saw.

15. Cutting crown moulding

Your compound mitre saw is suited for the difficult
task of cutting crown moulding. To fit properly,
crown moulding must be compound mitred with
extreme accuracy. The two surfaces on a piece of

CROWNMOULDINGTHATlTmATAGAINSTTHECEILINGAND

wall are at angles that, when added together,
equal exactly 90°. (See fig. 40&41)

Most crown moulding has a top rear angle (the

MAINTENANCE

Danger: To avoid injury, never put

lubricants on the blade while it
is spinning.
Warning: To avoid fire or toxic
reaction, never use petrol, naphtha,
acetone, lacquer thinner or similar highly
volatile solvents to clean the mitre saw.
Warning: For your safety, this saw
is double-insulated. To avoid electrical
shock, fire or injury, use only parts identical to
those identified in the parts list. Reassemble
exactly as the original assembly to avoid
electrical shock.

Replacing carbon brushes

Replace both carbon brushes when either has
less than 6 mm length of carbon remaining,
or if the spring or wire is damaged or burned.
To inspect or replace brushes, first unplug
the saw. Then remove the black plastic cap
(1) on the side of the motor (2). Remove the
cap cautiously, because it is spring loaded.
Then pull out the brush and replace. Replace
for the other side. To reassemble reverse the
procedure. The ears on the metal end of the
assembly go in the same hole the carbon part
fits into. Tighten the cap snugly, but do not
overtighten. (See fig. 45)
Note: To reinstall the same brushes, first make
sure the brushes go back in the way they
came out. This will avoid serviceable brushes
undergoing a second ‘bedding in’ process that
could reduce motor performance and increases
wear.

Lower blade guard

Do not use the saw without the lower blade
guard. The lower blade guard is attached to the
saw for your protection. Should the lower guard
become damaged, do not use the saw until the
damaged guard has been replaced. Develop a
regular check to make sure the lower guard is
working properly. Clean the lower guard of any
dust or buildup with a damp cloth.

Fig 44

2

ERBAUER 210MM (8-1/4”) SLIDING COMPOUND MITRE SAW

Warning: Do not use solvents on the

guard. They could make the plastic
“cloudy” and brittle.

Warning: When cleaning the lower
guard, unplug the saw from the power
source to avoid unexpected startup.

Sawdust
Periodically, sawdust will accumulate under the work
table and base. This could cause difficulty in the
movement of the worktable when setting up a mitre
cut. Frequently blow out or vacuum up the sawdust.

Warning: If blowing sawdust, wear
proper eye protection to keep debris from
blowing into eyes.

Lubrication
All the motor bearings in this tool are lubricated with
a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the
life of the unit under normal operating conditions;
therefore, no further bearing lubrication is required.
Lubricate the following as necessary: Chop
pivot: Apply light machine oil to points indicated
in illustration. Central pivot of plastic guard: Use
light household oil (sewing machine oil ) on metal­to-metal or metal-to-plastic guard contact areas
as required for smooth, quiet operation. Avoid
excessive oil, to which sawdust will cling. Guard
arm: (which actuates the lower guard movement)
may be oiled at the rear pivot, greased at ball
bearing contact, and oiled where the guard arm
actuates the acetyl roller of the lower guard, if the
down chop motion is hard.
