ABSTRACT:
A miter saw includes a miter saw for placing a work thereon, a miter saw unit having a saw blade mounted thereon, and a support mechanism for supporting the miter saw unit for rightward and leftward pivotal movement relative to the base. The support mechanism includes a first member on one side of the base and the miter saw unit and a second member on the other side of the base and the miter saw unit. The first member and the second member are pivotable relative to each other about a pivotal axis. A stopper mechanism is disposed between the first member and the second member for holding the miter saw unit in a vertical position. The stopper mechanism includes a first pressing member mounted on the first member, a first biasing member for biasing the first pressing member, and an abutting surface provided on the second member for abutment of the first pressing member. The abutting surface has a first recess formed therein. The pressing member is brought to automatically engage the first recess by the biasing force of the first biasing member when the miter saw unit is pivoted from a laterally pivoted position to the vertical position.
