(11) Splinter guard, also serving for cut alignment
When rip-cutting through the end of a workpiece, a splinter may drop and be caught by the saw blade to be cut
into scattering pieces. The Models C 10FSH and C 10FSB are equipped with a splinter guard to prevent such
splinter cutting. (Refer to "4. SELLING POINTS (11)" on page 1.)
Safe cutting is ensured also in bevel cutting because the guard is tilted with the saw blade. In addition, the
guard is movable, so that mark alignment is made much easier by aligning the saw blade groove at the guard
end with the marked line on the workpiece, but only if the fence's workpiece holder surface is in alignment with
the guard end (in right-angle and bevel cutting). Aligning the fence's workpiece holding surface with the guard
tip end can be easily accomplished by placing the flat workpiece in tight contact with fences, pressing the
guard end against the workpiece and fixing it in position.
*For Europe, the Models C 10FSH and C 10FSB are equipped with a fixed splinter guard to comply with the
safety standard.
(12) Minimized reaction during motor start up
The Models C 10FSH and C 10FSB use the soft-start system to suppress reaction transmitted through the
handle.
Smoothly and quickly reaches the specified speed (constant speed control)
Low reaction transmitted through the handle (soft start)
Deflection of saw blade is quickly minimized (stabilized) (soft start and constant speed control)
Especially, even in the case of cutting immediately after the start of operation (1.0 to 1.2 seconds later), not
only the good cutting quality but also the increased working efficiency can be obtained thanks to the above
and . Thus the effect of the electronic soft-start and constant-speed control system is highly
evaluated.
