The CPSC and DeWALT have recalled DeWALT 12-inch Sliding Compound Miter Saws.  The rear safety guard on this mitre saw may detach or break creating the possibilities that the user could sustain deep lacerations from the exposed saw blade and that projectiles could strike the user or bystanders.  About 1,364,000 of these saws were sold in the US and about 118,600 were sold in Canada at Lowe’s stores, The Home Depot and hardware stores nationwide, and online at Amazon.com, Lowes.com and at other websites.  Immediately stop using these recalled saws and contact DeWALT at 1-800-990-6421 for information regarding receipt of a free repair kit.  Alternatively, owners may take their saw to a DeWALT service center for a free repair.
