ADJUSTING THE 90O AND 45O POSITIVE STOPS (FIG. H, H-1, I)

Your saw has positive stops that will quickly position the saw blade at 90° and 45° to the table. Make adjustments only if necessary.

90O Stop (Fig. H, H-1)

1.Disconnect the saw from the power source.

2.Turn the blade tilting handwheel until the blade tilting scale is at 90°.

3.Turn the blade elevation handwheel and raise the blade to the maximum elevation.

4.Place a combination square on the table and against the blade to check if the blade is 90° to the table.

5.If the blade is not 90°to the table. Remove the back cover (2) of the base by removing the screws (1), three for each side.

6.Adjust the bevel tilting handwheel to make an adequate distance between the anchor block (3) and bevel gear (4).

7.Loosen the two set screws (5) of the anchor block (3) with 3mm allen key.

8.Separate the anchor block (3) from the worm (6).

•When the bevel angle is more than 90°, turn the anchor block (3) to A direction in adequate degree until the bevel angle and bevel scale is the same.

•When the bevel angle is less than 90°, turn the anchor block to B direction in adequate degree until the bevel angle and bevel scale is the same.

9.When completing the above adjustment, replace the set screws (5) and tighten them.

10.Replace the back cover (2) and then tighten the screws (1), three for each side. (Fig. H)

45° Stop (Fig. I)

1.Turn the blade tilting handwheel until the blade tilting scale is 45°.

2.Turn the blade elevation handwheel and raise the blade to the maximum elevation.

3.Place a combination square on the table and against the blade to check if the blade is 45° to the table.

4.If the blade is not 45° to the table. Remove the back cover (2) of the base by removing the screws (1), three for each side. (Fig. H)

C 10LA specifications

The Hitachi C 10LA is a powerful and versatile miter saw that stands out in the realm of woodworking and construction tools. Known for its precision, efficiency, and durability, this saw is designed to meet the needs of both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts.

One of the main features of the Hitachi C 10LA is its robust 15-amp motor, which delivers a remarkable no-load speed of up to 5,000 RPM. This high-speed capability allows users to make clean and accurate cuts through various materials, including hardwood, softwood, and even composite materials. The saw’s large cutting capacity provides a maximum miter cut of 52 degrees to the right and 45 degrees to the left, along with a maximum bevel cut of 45 degrees. This range of motion makes it ideal for creating precise angled cuts, commonly required for crown molding and other intricate woodworking projects.

The C 10LA also features a unique laser marker system that enhances cutting accuracy. This technology projects a laser line onto the workpiece, indicating exactly where the blade will cut, thereby eliminating guesswork and reducing the risk of errors. Additionally, the saw is equipped with a large, sturdy base, providing stability during use and reducing vibration for smoother operation.

Safety is a significant consideration in the design of the Hitachi C 10LA. It includes an electric brake that halts the blade almost instantly after the trigger is released, ensuring that users can operate the saw with confidence. Its dust collector attachment helps maintain a clean work environment by capturing sawdust and debris, which not only improves visibility but also promotes a safer workspace.

The C 10LA’s lightweight design, weighing approximately 26.3 lbs, coupled with a comfortable handle, makes it easy to transport and maneuver, whether in a workshop or on a job site. The saw is also designed for easy blade changes and maintenance, further enhancing its usability and convenience.

In summary, the Hitachi C 10LA miter saw combines powerful performance with advanced features, making it a reliable choice for tradespeople and hobbyists alike. With its high-speed motor, accurate laser guide, impressive cutting capacity, and safety features, it is well-equipped to handle a wide variety of cutting tasks with precision and ease.
