Hitachi designed the C12LDH for versatile, easy use. The thumb-actuated positive miter stops for simple miter adjustments at the most common angles between zero and 52 degrees to the left and right. This design allows you to easily change the angle of the cutting blade for creating miters in crown molding and other trim pieces.
The bevel scale ranges from zero to 48 degrees to the left and right, allowing your material to stay in place while you flip the saw head to make opposing cuts, and the saw head bevels to the right or left, also allowing the material to stay securely in place for cutting efficiency. After your major bevel angle is secured, a micro-bevel adjustment knob can be used to dial in a precise angle without the weight of the saw head compromising accuracy.
The 12-inch TCT saw blade (included) makes easy work of delicate trim and other woodwork, and the tall, pivoting aluminum fence stands at a height of 5-1/8 inches to allow for accurate vertical cutting of crown molding and cutting of large workpieces up to 2-5/16 inches high and 5-21/32 inches deep.
Laser Marker Technology and LCD for Perfect Cuts
Hitachi equipped the C12LDH with its exclusive Laser Marker System, which can be activated before the blade is in motion for exact alignment and predictable blade placement. The laser marker is easily adjustable to the left or right of the cut mark to suit your preferences, simply line up the laser with your mark on the workpiece, and the saw blade will make an exact cut along the laser guide. As long as your measurements are right, your cuts will be, too!
The C12LDH also includes an innovative LCD (liquid crystal display) that takes the guesswork out of miter and bevel readings and saves time by eliminating costly mistakes. This digital display includes a backlight for clear readings in bright or dim conditions, and it is impact resistant, so it will withstand accidental bumps.
Chock-Full of User-Friendly Features
The C12LDH has plenty of features to help you make the perfect cut the first time. To start, it has a powerful 15-amp motor that generates a no-load speed of up to 4,000 RPM to smoothly and easily cut through even the toughest hardwoods.
For precise, safe cutting, a splinter guard behind the fence increases safety and reduces tear-out for clean, finished cuts, and a comfortable horizontal handle with a vibration-reducing elastomer grip prevents slippage and keeps you in control at all times. Additionally, a large base provides support and balance to prevent material from warping, and a built-in clamping system holds your workpiece in place. An added bonus, easily accessible carbon brushes will help your saw perform for the long term.
The Hitachi C12LDH measures 24-5/8 x 30-23/32 x 27 inches and weighs 47.4 pounds. Durably built, this tool is backed with an industry-leading five-year warranty.

1st Customer Review : Nice Saw
I did some considerable research on the Hitachi miter saws and decided on this one. When I received the saw, I opened the box and it appeared as though this saw was used before, the packaging was horrible and one of the sub-fences was snapped off. I called Amazon and they overnighted a replacemend saw. Upon opening the second saw, the packaging wasn't much better, but atleast this saw didn't appear to be used. When I pulled it out of the box, I noticed the same sub-fence was broken just like the first saw?? I called Hitachi and got the run around until I asked to speak with a manager and I was informed that she had received several complaint calls regarding broken sub-fences that week. The problem comes down to the cardboard packaging that Hitachi uses to secure the saw in the box. Hitachi needs to upgrade their packaging. The saw's are made and packaged in China, I'm sure the box gets bounced around quite a bit. The sub-fence that is broken is on back order from Hitachi, so what does...

2nd Customer Review : Great Miter Saw
Great miter saw; I found that it was dead on accurate out of the box except for the B side Sub Fence as it was bent/warped. I contacted Hitachi through email on there site and the next day they had responded and said they were shipping a replacement fence. I got the fence 4 days latter and the saw is great now.
I'm not a contractor just a very avid DIY guy, I hate paying people of work I can do myself. So this saw works great for me. Here are my Pros/Cons of this saw:
Pros:
1) Very Powerful and easy to use
2) Accurate out of the box
3) Digital Miter/Bevel display is great and takes the guess work out of cuts especially the bevel.
4) Very solid built and high quality
5) Great packaging for shipping no damage
6) Laser comes in without having to start the blade
7) Great customer Service from Hitachi
Cons:
1) Bent/warped Sub Fence on delivery (resolved by Hitachi)
2) Laser hard to see in any sun lights
3)...
3rd Customer Review : After a lot of consideration
After a lot of thinking and checking, I looked at every brand of saw, read reviews of every brand, tried every brand first hand. With a ton of searching I decided on this saw, and I am very happy. The digital read out means that while searching for the right angle you can walk away have someone else on the job move it use it and be able to return it exactly to even the most difficult cut angles. The laser is by far the best in the industry don't care what anyone says about this brand or that, the best laser system by 100 times over anyone else. Mine was perfect out of the box, has worked great since I bought it. With my crews they now fight over who gets the Hitachi and who gets stuck with the Dewalt and Ridgid, helps everyone show up to the shop earlier which is a bonus. Other than that the basic functions are the same as any saw, I hate the Dewalt front cam lock system due to the fact that many times I have had my finger pinched in this thing, so I prefer the twist lock handle...
