Abstract
A dust collection system for a circular saw having a saw housing and a motor configured to rotationally drive a saw blade includes a dust collecting member and a guide mechanism. The dust collecting member includes a body having a first end in which a dust collection opening is defined and a second end operably connectable to an airflow generation device. The guide mechanism is configured to support the dust collecting member on the saw housing such that the dust collection opening remains adjacent to an outer edge of the saw blade in response to one of the dust collecting member and the guide mechanism contacting the workpiece to move the dust collecting member.
