A cutting device, such as a beveling miter saw, includes a base, a work table supported on the base, and a cutting unit operably connected to the base. The work table includes a workpiece support surface and a stop portion. The cutting unit is selectively rotatable about a first axis between leftward and rightward bevel positions relative to the workpiece support surface. A rotatable stop member is coupled to the cutting unit and is selectively rotatable relative to the cutting unit to selectively contact the stop portion to thereby prevent rotation of the cutting unit in one direction about the first axis. The rotatable stop member and the stop portion may be positioned so that those elements contact when the cutting unit is at a predetermined bevel position, such as a vertical (0&deg;) bevel position, relative to the workpiece support surface.

Bevel stop for cutting device

A splitter and cutting member guard assembly for mounting on a table saw or other similarly constructed device including a circular saw blade or other rotating, oscillating, or otherwise driven cutting member, a table portion including a workpiece supporting surface and having a void therethrough for passage of a portion of the cutting member, and a table insert removably disposed within the void and including a slot for passage of the cutting member. The splitter and cutting member assembly includes a cutting member guard hood for covering an operative portion of the cutting member and a splitter for passing through a workpiece kerf as the workpiece is fed past the splitter. The cutting member guard hood is movably mounted to the splitter and is pivotable or otherwise movable relative to the splitter between a first position, in which the cutting member hood covers the operative portion of the cutting member, and a second position, in which the operative portion of the cutting member is not covered by the cutting member guard hood. The cutting member guard hood may be retained in the second position if the table insert is removed from the void in the table portion.

A spindle adjustment mechanism which includes a rotatable hand wheel, a bracket for operably retaining a spindle and a motor for driving the spindle, and an assembly for uniaxially transmuting rotation of the hand wheel to linear movement of the spindle through movement of the bracket.
