Abstract
A miter saw includes a base on which a work is placed. A miter saw unit supports a saw blade and has a motor for rotatably driving the saw blade. A support mechanism is provided supporting the miter saw unit relative to the base in such a manner that the miter saw unit is laterally leftwardly and rightwardly pivotable from a vertical position. A biasing member is interposed between the miter saw unit and the base for biasing the miter saw unit in a direction opposite to at least one of the directions of the lateral pivotal movement of the miter saw unit when the miter saw unit is laterally pivoted.
