How To Use The Vise Assembly; Confirmation For Use Of Sub Fence - Hitachi C 12LCH Technical Data And Service Manual

8-2. How to Use the Vise Assembly

(1) The vise assembly can be mounted on either the left
fence (fence (B)) or the right fence (fence (A)) by
loosening 6 mm wing bolt (A).
(2) The screw holder can be raised or lowered according to
the height of the workpiece by loosening 6 mm wing bolt
(B). After the adjustment, firmly tighten 6 mm wing bolt
(B) and fix the screw holder.
(3) Turn the upper knob and securely fix the workpiece in
position (Fig. 12).
WARNING: Always firmly clamp or vise to secure the workpiece to the fence; otherwise the
workpiece might be thrust from the table and cause bodily harm.
CAUTION: Always confirm that the motor head does not contact the vise assembly when it is
lowered for cutting. If there is any danger that it may do so, loosen the 6 mm wing bolt
(B) and move the vise assembly to a position where it will not contact the saw blade.

8-3. Confirmation for Use of Sub Fence

This power tool is equipped with a sub fence.
In the case of direct angle cutting and angle cutting, use the sub
fence. Then you can realize stable cutting of the material with a
wide back face.
In the case of left bevel cutting, raise the sub fence up as
illustrated in Fig. 13 and then turn it counterclockwise.
WARNING: In the case of left bevel cutting, turn the sub
fence counterclockwise. Unless it is turned
counterclockwise, the main body or saw blade
may contact the sub fence, resulting in an injury.
