ERBAUER 210MM (8-1/4”) SLIDING COMPOUND MITRE SAW
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Before using your mitre
saw be sure to read the instruction
manual carefully.
Operating instructions
1. Know your mitre saw
Read and understand the Operator’s Manual
and labels affixed to the tool. Learn its
application and limitations as well as the
potential hazards specific to this tool. To avoid
injury from accidental contact with moving
parts, do not lay out, assemble or set up work
on the mitre saw.
2. Electrical connection
Your mitre saw has a precision-built electric
motor and it should only be connected to a
240 V. 50Hz. Power supply (normal household
current). Do not operate on direct current
(DC). This large voltage drop will cause a loss
of power that will overheat the motor. If your
mitre saw does not operate when plugged
into an outlet, have a professional electrician
check the power supply.
WARNING!
Avoid accidental starting.
Make sure the switch is in the OFF
position before plugging the mitre saw into a
power outlet.
3. Body and Hand position
WARNING!
Never place hands near the
cutting area. Proper positioning of your
body and hands when operating the mitre saw
will make cutting easier and safer. Keep children
away. Keep all visitors at a safe distance from the
mitre saw. Make sure bystanders are clear of the
saw and workpiece. Don’t force the saw. It will
do the job better and safer at its designed rate.
Starting a cut:
• Place hands at least 190.5 mm away from
the blade – out of the “no-hands zone” (1).
(See Fig 27)
• Clamp workpiece firmly against the fence to
prevent movement toward the blade.
