8. Lubrication

Lubricate the following sliding surfaces once a month to keep the power tool in good operating condition for a long time (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). Use of machine oil is recommended.

Oil supply points:

*Rotary portion of hinge

*Rotary portion of vise assembly

9.Cleaning

Periodically remove chips, dust and other waste material from the surface of the power tool, especially from the inside of the lower guard with a damp, soapy cloth. To avoid a malfunction of the motor, protect it from contact with oil or water.

(Only Model C10FCH)

If the laser line becomes invisible due to chips and the like adhered onto the window of the laser marker's light-emitting section, wipe and clean the window with a dry cloth or a soft cloth moistened with soapy water, etc.

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.
