In some embodiments, a cutting system including a movable blade operably coupled to a motor is disclosed, wherein the cutting system comprises a diverting feature. In some embodiments, a diverter proximity relative to the movable blade is selected to facilitate diversion of a material during cutting. In at least one embodiment, the movable blade may be a circular blade or a reciprocating blade with a thickness of less than 3/32 of an inch. A cutting system according to the present invention may be coupled to a container, for example, a residential trash container or a residential recycling container.

The invention relates to a panel saw (1) for cutting plate-shaped workpieces (2) into multiple sections, comprising: a machine base frame (3); a workpiece support (4) with a sawing slot (5); a saw aggregate (7), which is arranged below the workpiece support (4), wherein a circular saw blade (6) is arranged on the saw aggregate (7), which circular saw blade (6) in a sawing position (34) protrudes through the sawing slot (5) and is displaceable in a sawing direction (8); a holding-down device (9) for clamping the workpiece (2) on the workpiece support (4); a positioning device (12) for positioning the workpiece (2).

A table saw includes a table that defines a saw blade slot and a first trunnion member defining a first axis point of a bevel pivot axis, wherein the first trunnion member supports a saw carriage. The table saw further includes a first mounting arrangement configured to fix the first trunnion member to the table in an engaged state of the first mounting arrangement, and a horizontal axis alignment arrangement configured, in a disengaged state of the first mounting arrangement, to inhibit lateral movement of the first trunnion member and to allow vertical movement of the first trunnion member.

A table saw, preferably a circular table saw, with a support structure which can be placed on a support and on the upper side of which a workpiece support plate is provided, and with a saw blade projecting upwards over the workpiece support plate. The workpiece support plate is mounted so that it can slide in the sawing direction relative to the support structure and to the saw blade and has a splinter protection element arranged on a side of the workpiece support plate facing the saw blade. This side is guided past the saw blade when the workpiece support plate is moved.

A table saw has a base assembly, a table assembly supported by the base assembly, the table assembly, and a saw assembly supported by at least one of the table assembly and the base assembly. The saw assembly has a saw blade extending through the table assembly. The base assembly has at least one foot having a substantially horizontal surface, a substantially vertical surface, and a curved surface disposed between the substantially horizontal surface and the substantially vertical surface. The substantially vertical surface is substantially coplanar with a surface of the table assembly so that the table saw can be disposed on the substantially vertical surface and the surface of the table assembly.

Power saws and features for power saws are disclosed. Various features are particularly relevant to jobsite or benchtop table saws, such as a trunnion formed from a shaped tube, an elevation carriage, and an arbor block retention mechanism. Other features are particularly relevant to table saws, hand-held circular saws, track saws, miter saws, and band saws with active injury mitigation technology, such as an electrically isolating gear and an overmolded arbor/gear element.

A fence assembly for a table saw includes a primary fence including a first elongated body having a first body first side, a first body second side, a first body top side, and a first body bottom side, and a first height measured between the first body top side and the first body bottom side. A secondary fence is pivotally mounted to the primary fence and pivotable between a deployed position adjacent one of the first body first side or the first body second side, and a stowed position adjacent the other of the first body first side or the first body second side. The secondary fence includes a second elongated body having a second body top side and a second body bottom side, and a second height measured between the second body top side and the second body bottom side. The second height is less than the first height.
