Tool

Mitre saws have a lot of structural and functional differences from the machines, and jigsaws. As for the device of a tool, the key feature is the presence of the rotary table. It is through this platform the operator has the ability to cut at angles. To ensure the high precision cutting on the same table provides scale with fine graduations, which eliminates the need for measurement of individual devices. Moreover, the latest versions from the major manufacturers are equipped with a laser indicating the line of cutting. In some versions surfacing on metal also allows the execution of auto drive. In the cutting process is not the user moves the workpiece and the special grip at a certain speed. To simplify the subsequent maintenance activities of the workplace as options manufacturers equip trimming and dust removal systems. Through an external pipe connected building cleaner (usually the same brand), which in the progress of the operation to blow chips from debris in the bag.
