Amazon.com Review
Hitachi's' 8-1/2-inch sliding compound miter saw is a tried-and-true favorite with professionals, who value its solid construction and reliable accuracy. It has a 9-1/2 amp motor with an electric brake, 11 positive miter stops, and 4 positive stops on the bevel gauge. We like the big wide table, the hefty base construction, and the embossed numbers and markers of the miter gauge. While the sliding fence is clearly designed with easy adjustment in mind, it's less durable than we would like to see and not too tall. The blade guard operates smoothly and doesn't obstruct the visibility of the work--an improvement over previous versions that had a tendency to hang up. This saw was among the first sliding compound miter saws out, and its solid, reliable design hasn't changed much or lost popularity, even after several years on the market and a lot more competition. Due to its solid construction, it remains accurate after a long time on the job, making it a consistent favorite with professional trim carpenters and everyone else whose work depends on exactitude. People who want the accuracy this saw offers but need more thickness capacity and the convenience of a double-bevel saw may want to consider Hitachi's 10-inch sliding compound miter saw. --Brian Trinen

From the Manufacturer
The linear ball bearing slide system gives you superior accuracy while the dynamic electric brake stops blade movement. Positive bevel stops are located at 0, 30, and 33.9 degrees, with positive left and right miter stops at 15, 22.5, 31.6, 35.3, and 45 degrees. Double insulation prevents electrical shock. Your compound saw purchase includes a 24-tooth, carbide-tipped saw blade, vise assembly, slide fence, box wrench, and dust bag.
