Description of Hitachi C10RA2 10-Inch Portable Table Saw with Metal Stand

This portable table saw includes a high-quality rip fence with cam-locking action, front- and rear-guide bars for accurate positioning, electric brake, and see-through blade guard with splitter and spring-loader antikickback fingers. Built for speed and durability, this table saw features a 15 amp, 5,000 rpm motor and a 10-inch, 36-tooth carbide blade. The blade cuts a 3-inch depth at 90 degrees and a 2-1/2 inch depth at 45 degrees. The saw's wide support table measures 34 by 19-5/8 inches (width by length). Metal stand, a $79.99 value, included at no charge.
The Hitachi 10-inch table saw is a lightweight portable that packs plenty of power and prices in the midrange of portable table saws. We've come to think of a good-quality rip fence as perhaps the most important feature of any table saw, and the Hitachi has a nicely finished, easily adjusted fence that feels sturdy and well mounted. The cam-lock handle is easy to operate and holds the fence firmly in place. The bevel adjustment is simply designed and operates smoothly. The handle pulls out to disengage and move the blade in large increments, then pushes back in for crank-turn microadjustments. However, we found a flaw with the Hitachi's poorly designed bevel lock. This rather small lever is mounted alongside the crank handle. As the blade tilts, the lever moves with it. The problem comes when the blade is tilted to a full 45-degree angle: in that position, the lever is tucked up close under the table and is very hard to tighten. This drawback probably isn't enough to dissuade true Hitachi loyals, who appreciate the power and durability of the famous Hitachi motor, but an improvement here would make this decent and reliable saw a top contender. The Hitachi doesn't feature the extendable fence for ripping four-by-eight panel material like the Bosch and DeWalt saws, but at $150 less than those tools, it's a solid and affordable performer. --Mark McDonald

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hitachi C10RA2 10-Inch Portable Table Saw with Metal Stand

Customer Review: Worth the Price
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a professional trim carpenter, and I've been very happy with my Hitachi saw. Some of the reviews I've read have been negative on the Hitachi because they're comparing the Hitachi with $1000 and up table saws. The Hitachi is good for those who have a larger table saw and want something to use on-site, and it's fine for the average homeowner. The saw is great because it's portable, light, no-frills... It also has a nice motor as well. It's the best $300 tabel saw you can buy, and I like it more than the Bosch, which I also own and is much heavier.
