Abstract
A miter saw includes a base, a table pivotally coupled to the base about a miter axis, and a saw unit coupled to the table for movement about the miter axis. A workpiece support is pivotable relative to the base between a first position, in which the table is permitted to pivot about the miter axis within a first range of miter angles, and a second position, in which the table is permitted to pivot about the miter axis within a second range of miter angles different than the first range. The miter saw further includes a locking mechanism for maintaining the workpiece support in at least one of the first position or the second position, wherein the locking mechanism includes an actuator supported by and moveable with the workpiece support between the first position and the second position.
