WHAT CAN I CUT
WITH THIS
HITACHI?
HITACHI C10FCE2 VS
C10FCH2: WHICH IS THE
RIGHT MITER SAW FOR YOU?
Both of these miter saws are 10inch models
and come with a fairly standard 15 amp
motor
when it comes to power, these two saws
are very similar. The C10FCE2 and C10FCH2
can both handle a bevel angle of 0-45
degrees to the left, and a miter angle of up
to 52 degrees both to the left and the right
Where the C10FCH2 shines is with the laser
alignment
C10FCE2 does a decent job, considering the
price, the C10FCH2 does a good deal better
when it comes to collecting all the saw dust
The difference between these two are less
than the price of a decent steak dinner with
all the trimmings
If you really need a laser, I would
recommend you get a unit like
the Oshlun LG-MO1 Laser Guide
to fit to this saw
Unless you go for a really high
end miter saw, dust collection
sucks with most miter saws
instructions for assembly is a
little vague, and if you are not
familiar with miter saws, you
might take a bit longer to get up
and running
ANYTHING
NOT TO
LIKE?
WHAT ARE THE
BEST
FEATURES
Affordable price
Convenient angle stops
for easy alignment
Very comfortable handle
that reduces vibration
(trust me, you will like this
feature!)
Enough power to handle
4x posts
Excellent 5 year warranty
Great list of accessories
included considering the
price
At this price you are not going to
get the most accurate miter saw
on the market
You are getting a workhorse that
is a solid starter option for those
new to miter saws
The motor is powerful, and will eat
up a 2×6 in one go
I also like the 5 year warranty
which is one of the main reasons
Hitachi power tools are so popular
SO, IS THE C10FCE2 WORTH YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY?
