A tile saw comprising a base, a table supported by the base and configured to support a workpiece, a guide rail upon which the table is supported and moveable along a longitudinal axis, a saw unit coupled to the base, and a roller assembly for supporting the table upon the guide rail. The roller assembly includes a first roller rotatably supported by the table and engaged with a first portion of the guide rail, and a second roller rotatably supported by the table and engaged with a second portion of the guide rail that is different than the first portion. The second roller is translatable relative to the table in a direction toward the guide rail. The roller assembly further includes a spring biasing the second roller toward the guide rail.

Tile saw

A tile saw includes a table configured to support a workpiece, a guide rail upon which the table is supported and movable along a longitudinal axis, a saw unit for cutting the workpiece as the table moves along the longitudinal axis, and a roller assembly for coupling the table to the guide rail. The roller assembly includes an upper roller engaged with an upper portion of the guide rail, a lower roller engaged with a lower portion of the guide rail, and a resilient member biasing at least one of the upper roller or the lower roller against the guide rail.

A miter saw includes a fence assembly having a first fence fixedly coupled to a base of the miter saw. The fence assembly includes a moveable fence having a lower portion slidably received within a channel at least partially defined by the first fence. The fence assembly includes a locking member coupled to the first fence. The locking member extends into a groove defined by the lower portion of the moveable fence. The locking member is configured to engage the lower portion of the moveable fence to selectively lock the moveable fence between a retracted position and an extended position relative to the first fence. The fence assembly includes a retaining member coupled to the first fence and extending into the groove of the moveable fence. The locking member and the retaining member collectively restrict the moveable fence from moving in a direction away from the horizontal workpiece support surfaces.
