Abstract: A saw blade clamping arrangement for a power tool including a housing, a drive shaft mounted for reciprocating motion relative to the housing and having a longitudinal drive axis, and a saw blade releasably interconnected with the drive shaft. The saw blade clamping arrangement includes a blade support mechanism with first and second slots crosswise intersecting slots configured to selectively receive the saw blade in first and second orientations. The clamping arrangement also includes a tubular actuator rotatable about the longitudinal drive axis between an engaged position and a disengaged position, the actuator including a locking cam surface, and a locking member operatively associated with the actuator, and movable between a locked position that selectively locks the blade in one of the first and second orientations and an unlocked position that releases the blade, the locking member including a follower surface driven by the locking cam surface.

Abstract: A miter saw includes a table on which a workpiece is placed, a saw assembly supporting a saw blade and having a motor for rotatably driving the saw blade, a housing pivotally supporting the saw assembly related to the table in such a manner that the saw assembly is at least laterally pivotable, and a bevel stop mechanism for selectively determining the lateral position of the saw assembly at any of a plurality of pivoted positions, the bevel stop mechanism comprising a movable rod and first, second and third fixed stop members. The table may be rotatably attached to a base.

Abstract: A saw blade clamping arrangement for a power tool including a drive shaft and a saw blade releasably interconnected with the drive shaft for reciprocating motion along a longitudinal axis. The saw blade clamping arrangement includes a support mechanism interconnected with the drive shaft, the support mechanism configured to selectively receive the saw blade in first and second orientations, an actuator mounted on the drive shaft and rotatable relatively to the drive shaft between an engaged position and a disengaged position, the actuator including first and second locking cam surfaces, and first and second locking members operatively associated with the actuator, and movable between a locked position that selectively locks the blade to the corresponding first and second orientations and an unlocked position that releases the blade. The first and second locking members including first and second follower surfaces driven by the respective first and second locking cam surfaces.

Abstract: A miter saw includes a base, a table rotatably attached to the base, a support housing connected to the table, a saw assembly connected to the support housing, the saw assembly comprising a pivot arm, an upper blade guard connected to the pivot arm, a motor attached to the upper blade guard, and a blade driven by the motor, and a dust collector having a main body, wherein at least one slot is disposed on the main body.

Abstract: A compound miter saw includes a unique table assembly which incorporates a table locking mechanism and a detent override mechanism. The lock mechanism incorporated into the table assembly is movable between two positions. The first position locks the table to the miter saw and the second position permits rotation of the table. The detent override mechanism is normally engaged such that it will releasably hold the table in one of a plurality of popular miter angles. The detent override mechanism allows the operator to disengage the detent system to avoid the holding of the table during its rotation.

Abstract: The miter saw includes a base, a table rotatably attached to the base, a support housing connected to the table, at least one rail slidably connected to the support housing, a saw assembly pivotally attached to the at least one rail and movable between a front position and a rear position, the saw assembly including a trunnion disposed on the at least one rail, a pivot arm pivotally attached to the trunnion, an upper blade guard connected to the pivot arm, a motor attached to the upper blade guard, and a blade driven by the motor, and a carrying handle provided on the at least one rail.
