(7) Comfortable and nonskid soft-touch handle
The handle is entirely covered with elastomer. The main handle and the sub handle are nonskid and fit in
hands for comfortable cutting operation.
(8) Adjustable steel guide piece
If the center of the saw blade is deviated from the notch of the guide piece due to continuous operation or
replacement of the saw blade, the position of the guide piece can be adjusted finely for more accurate cutting
operation. It is also convenient for cutting with respect to either side of the blade. The guide piece is made of
steel for higher strength.
(9) Blower function to blow out cutting dust on the ink line
The conventional models discharge almost all the cooling air forward as a blower function. However,
discharge of cooling air increases the operating noise. To cope with this, the Models C 9U2 and C 9BU2 are
equipped with the improved cooling air path to reduce the operating noise while maintaining the blower
function.
(10) Precise and heavy-duty aluminum die-cast base and lower guard
The base and the lower guard are made of heavy-duty aluminum die-cast material. The Models C 9U2 and
C 9BU2 can accurately cut workpieces for a long time because the base and the lower guard are highly
durable and resistant to warping.
(11) Two kinds of levers (Standard accessories)
The Models C 9U2 and C 9BU2 are equipped with both the short lever for use with the dust collector and the
long lever (factory-installed) as standard accessories. When the dust collector is not necessary, use the
easier-to-operate long lever for comfortable cutting operation.
(12) Large knob for easy cutting depth adjustment
The large knob is easy to adjust cutting depth speedily and reliably.
(13) Gear cover made of die-cast magnesium alloy
The Models C 9U2 and C 9BU2 are most lightweight in the class thanks to the gear cover made of die-cast
magnesium alloy.
