Abstract
A powered saw assembly includes a base having a top surface, a column fixed to the top surface, and a guide rail supported above the top surface. The assembly includes a saw unit translatable along the guide rail, the saw unit including a rotating arbor to which a saw blade is attachable for co-rotation therewith. A blade guard at least partially surrounds the saw blade and defines an opening through which the saw blade is movable for attaching or removing the saw blade relative to the arbor. A cover is movably coupled to the blade guard to selectively close the opening. With the cover moved away from the blade guard to expose the opening, the saw blade is attachable or removable relative to the arbor through the opening without passing the saw blade through the slot.
