4-1. Selling Point Descriptions

(1) 24T TCT saw blade cuts 57 mm (2-1/4") max. at 90 deg.
The Model C 18DL is equipped with a 165 mm (6-1/2") tungsten-carbide tipped saw blade as a standard
attachment. Its maximum cutting depth is 57 mm (2-1/4").
(2) 24T TCT saw blade cuts 40 mm (1-9/16") max. at 45 deg.
(Suitable for cutting 2 x 4 materials)
The Model C 18DL's maximum cutting depth is 40 mm (1-9/16") at 45 degrees inclined cutting. Therefore, a
2 x 4 workpiece can be easily cut at 45 degrees inclined cutting.
(3) Conveniently located light to illuminate work
The Model C 18DL is equipped with a spotlight for lighting blade edges. The working efficiency is improved
because the spotlight helps to align the saw blade with a premarked cutting line even in a dimly lit workplace.
Because the light switch and the safety switch lever are integrated into one switch, the switch operation is
easy and the spotlight can be lit before starting the saw blade. The spotlight is automatically turned off when
turning off the power switch. A standard automotive light bulb is used for the spotlight.
