<p>A circular cross-cut and miter saw has a supporting table and a sawing device, which is pivotable about a cross-cutting axis and has a saw blade and a movable swing guard. During a cross-cutting movement of the sawing device, a swivel mechanism produces a pivoting and/or swiveling movement of the swing guard such that the swing guard can be at least partly opened by swinging the sawing device down and closed by swinging the sawing device up. Uncomfortable and dangerous handling of the swing guard during the cross-cutting movement is avoided by a locking element of the swivel mechanism disposed such that the swing guard can be opened still further, even completely, by hand or by a workpiece to be cut, if either the locking element has been actuated or the cross-cutting movement has already been at least partially carried out.</p> |
