A circular saw (10) having a saw blade depth adjustment detent mechanism (26) for facilitating rapid positioning of a saw blade at predetermined depth positions includes a housing (16) enclosing a motor (14) disposed therein that rotates a circular saw (10) blade. The circular saw (10) includes a foot (18) which rides on a workpiece to guide the saw blade during cutting operations. The saw blade depth adjustment detent mechanism (26) pivotally interconnects the foot (18) to said housing (16) such that the circular saw (10) blade is adjustable to the foot (18) through a number of saw blade depth settings within a range of saw blade depth of cuts relative to the foot (18). The saw blade depth adjustment detent mechanism (26) includes a saw blade depth detent (32) and a second member (28) having a plurality of spaced saw blade depth recesses (56) that are each matingly engageable with the saw blade depth detent (32) to provide the range of saw blade depths. |
