Laser Line

Marking (pre-marked)

English

(3)After adjusting the position of the laser line, draw a right-angle ink line on the workpiece and align the ink line with the laser line. When aligning the ink line, slide the workpiece little by little and secure it by vise at a position where the laser line overlaps with the ink line. Work on the grooving again and check the position of the laser line. If you wish to change the laser line's position, make adjustments again following the steps from

(1) to (3).

Fig. 17

NOTE: Check and make sure on a periodic basis if the position of the laser line is in order. As regards the checking method, draw a right-angle ink line on the workpiece with the height of about 1-1/2" (38mm) and the width of 3-1/2" (89mm), and check that the laser line is in line with the ink line [The deviation between the ink line and the laser line should be less than the ink line width (0.5mm)]. (Fig. 17)

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

WARNING: * To avoid personal injury, never remove or place a workpiece on the table while the tool is being operated.

C 10FCE specifications

The Hitachi C 10FCE is a powerful and versatile 10-inch sliding compound miter saw designed to meet the needs of both professional contractors and serious DIY enthusiasts. Renowned for its precision and ease of use, this tool is engineered to deliver accurate cuts while offering a range of features that enhance its functionality.

One of the standout features of the C 10FCE is its 15-amp motor, which delivers a robust performance capable of cutting through a variety of materials, including hardwoods, softwoods, and engineered woods. The motor provides a no-load speed of 5,000 RPM, allowing for swift and efficient cutting tasks. The saw is equipped with a unique 0 to 52-degree miter angle range, providing versatility for making precise crosscuts at various angles. The dual-bevel functionality allows users to make beveled cuts in both directions, amplifying the tool’s adaptability for a wide range of projects.

The C 10FCE is also equipped with a laser guide system, which aids in ensuring accuracy by projecting a line on the workpiece where the cut will occur. This feature is particularly useful for achieving clean and precise cuts, reducing the likelihood of errors. Additionally, the saw boasts a large, robust table that provides ample support for larger workpieces, enhancing stability during use.

Durability is an important characteristic of the Hitachi C 10FCE. The saw features a rigid base that minimizes vibration and maximizes stability, resulting in smoother operation. The model is constructed with high-quality materials, ensuring longevity and consistent performance over time.

Safety is another key aspect integrated into the C 10FCE design. The saw includes a blade guard that covers the upper portion of the blade while in operation, protecting users from accidental contact. The electric brake system stops the blade quickly after the trigger is released, further enhancing user safety.

In conclusion, the Hitachi C 10FCE sliding compound miter saw is a feature-rich tool combining power, precision, and safety. With its reliable motor, versatile cutting angles, laser guide system, and durable construction, it stands as an ideal choice for anyone looking to tackle complex cutting tasks with confidence and accuracy. Whether for intricate trim work or larger construction projects, the C 10FCE is built to handle a diverse range of applications efficiently.
