Searched but didn't see this posted. Saw this on another forum and know it is a popular saw. I have one but don't yet know if it is affected. Only saws with date codes 2019 04 through 2022 04 are affected. I bought mine summer of 2019, its out on a job so I'll have to check it later... SNIP: Name of Product: DeWALT 12-inch Sliding Compound Miter Saws Hazard: The miter saw’s rear safety guard can break or detach, posing an injury hazard due to projectiles that can strike the user and bystanders and a laceration hazard to the user who could come into direct contact with the saw blade. Units affected... About 1,364,000 (In addition, about 118,600 were sold in Canada) Someone suggested users may actually be removing the guards and then getting hurt...

Thanks for the heads-up. I purchased a DWS779 to replace my old Dewalt this past year . Diligentia, Vis, Celeritas "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -- George Orwell | |||
