Front-accessible bevel locking system

摘要

A front-accessible bevel locking system for use with a power tool includes a mechanism for locking the power tool into a selected tilt or bevel position for bevel angle cuts. The bevel locking mechanism has a lever attached to a link rod by a cam mechanism such that, as the lever is moved to the locked position, the link rod holds a pivot support for the power tool at a bevel angle.
