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.
