Abstract
The safety device for a band saw which includes a vertically displaceable guard which is slidably mounted to a housing of the saw and having a lower end adjacent the table of saw and wherein a pivotable shield is carried by the lower end of the guard. A locking mechanism normally secures the guard in a lowered covering relationship to a band saw blade and must be manually released to permit raising of the guard to allow a workpiece to be moved beneath the shield to be cut by the band saw blade.
