USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,
the heavier the cord.
WARNING: Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this tool with a damaged or frayed electrical
cord or extension cord.
Inspect all electrical cords regularly. Never use in or near water or in any environment
where electric shock is possible.
DOUBLE INSULATION FOR SAFER OPERATION
To ensure safer operation of this power tool, HITACHI has adopted a double insulation design. “Double
insulation” means that two physically separated insulation systems have been used to insulate the electrically
conductive materials connected to the power supply from the outer frame handled by the operator. Therefore,
either the symbol “ ” or the words and “Double insulation” appear on the power tool or on the nameplate.
Although this system has no external grounding, you must still follow the normal electrical safety precautions
given in this Instruction Manual, including not using the power tool in wet environments.
To keep the double insulation system effective, follow these precautions:
*Only HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER should disassemble or assemble this power tool, and only
genuine HITACHI replacement parts should be installed.
*Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water and dry thoroughly.
*Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic components; otherwise the plastic may dissolve.

*Laser radiation- Do not stare into beam.
*Laser radiation on work table. Do not stare into beam.
If your eye is exposed directly to the laser beam, it can be hurt.
*Do not dismantle it.
*Do not give strong impact to the laser marker (main body of tool); otherwise, the
position of a laser line can go out of order, resulting in the damage of the laser
marker as well as a shortened service life.
*Keep the laser marker lit only during a cutting operation. Prolonged lighting of the
laser marker can result in a shortened service life.
*Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
NOTE: *Perform cutting by overlapping the ink line with the laser line.
*When the ink line and the laser line are overlapped, the strength and weakness of light will
change, resulting in a stable cutting operation because you can easily discern the conformity
of lines. This ensures the minimum cutting errors.
*In outdoor or near-the-window operations, it may become difficult to observe the laser line
due to the sunlight. Under such circumstances, move to a place that is not directly under the
sunlight and engage in the operation.
*Do not tug on the cord behind the motor head or hook your finger, wood and the like around
it; otherwise, the cord may come off and the laser marker may not be lit up.
*The laser marker will not light up if the digital display switch is turned off. (only on C12LDH)

Fig. 26
(1) As shown in Fig. 26 the width of the saw blade is the
width of the cut. Therefore, slide the workpiece to the
right (viewed from the operator’s position) when length
b is desired, or to the left when length a is desired.
If a laser marker is used, align the laser line with the left
side of the saw blade, and then align the ink line with
the laser line.
(2) Once the saw blade reaches maximum speed, push the
handle down carefully until the saw blade approaches
the workpiece.
(3) Once the saw blade contacts the workpiece, push the
handle down gradually to cut into the workpiece.
(4) After cutting the workpiece to the desired depth, turn
the power tool OFF and let the saw blade stop completely
before raising the handle from the workpiece to return
it to the full retract position.
WARNING: *Confirm that the trigger switch is turned OFF and the power plug has been removed
from the receptacle whenever the tool is not in use.
*When you cut the workpiece, avoid any cutoff thinner than the clearance between
the cutting edge and the saw blade. Otherwise, the cut-off material can enter the
clearance between the cutting edge and the saw blade and scatter around you,
resulting in an injury.
CAUTION: *Increased pressure on the handle will not increase the cutting speed.
On the contrary, too much pressure may result in overload of the motor and/or
decreased cutting efficiency.
*If the handle is pressed down with excessive or lateral force, the saw blade may
vibrate during the cutting operation and cause unwanted cutting marks on the
workpiece, thus reducing the quality of the cut. Accordingly, press the handle down
gently and carefully.

NOTE: *Positive stops are provided at the right and left of the 0°
center setting, at 15°, 22.5°, 31.6° and 45° settings.
Check that the miter scale and the tip of the indicator
are properly aligned.
Use the positive stop position as the yardstick
operations.
*Operation of the saw with the miter scale and indicator
out of alignment, or with the side handle not properly
tightened, will result in poor cutting precision.
CAUTION: Never remove the side handle; use of the tool without it would be hazardous.
To prevent an accident or personal injury always firmly tighten the miter handle.

(1) Loosen the clamp lever and bevel the saw blade to the left or to
the right.
When tilting the motor head to the right pull the set pin towards
the rear.
(2) Adjust the bevel angle to the desired setting while watching
the bevel angle scale and indicator, then secure the clamp lever.
Fig. 28
WARNING: When the workpiece is secured on the left or right side of the blade, the short cut-off
portion will come to rest on the right or left side of the saw blade. Always turn the
power off and let the saw blade stop completely before raising the handle from the
workpiece.
If the handle is raised while the saw blade is still rotating, the cut-off piece may
become jammed against the saw blade causing fragments to scatter about
dangerously.
When stopping the bevel cutting operation halfway, start cutting after pulling back
the motor head to the initial position.
Starting from halfway, without pulling back, causes the lower guard to be caught in
the cutting groove of the workpiece and to contact the saw blade.

CAUTION: If not tightened firmly enough the motor head might suddenly move or slip, causing
injuries. Be sure to tighten the motor head section enough so it will not move.
(2) Make fine adjustments to the bevel angle by gripping the handle and moving the knob (A).
NOTE: Turning knob (A) clockwise, allows fine adjustment of the main unit to the left (as seen from
front).
Turning knob (A) counterclockwise, allows fine adjustment of the main unit to the right (as
seen from front).
If you wish to cut left bevel angle 48° or right bevel angle 48°, pull the bevel plate backwards
until the hinge contacts either the 8mm bolt (A) or the 8mm bolt (B) then cut diagonally left or
right. Setting to cut left bevel angle 48° or right bevel angle 48° can be done easily.
(3) After adjusting to the desired angle, tighten the clamp lever and clamp the motor head.
CAUTION: Always check that the clamp lever is secured and the motor head is clamped. If you
attempt angle cutting without clamping the motor head, then the motor head might
shift unexpectedly causing injuries.
7. Compound cutting procedures
Compound cutting can be performed by following the instructions in 4 and 5 above. For maximum
dimensions for compound cutting, refer to “SPECIFICATIONS” table on page 9.
CAUTION: Always secure the workpiece with the right hand side for compound cutting. Never
rotate the table to the right for compound cutting, because the saw blade might then
contact the clamp or vise that secures the workpiece, and cause personal injury or
damage.
