The CPSC and Harbor Freight Tools have recalled the replacement lower blade guards for 12-inch Chicago Electric Power Tools branded 12-inch Double Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saws, item #61970. The replacement blade is part #15610. The lower blade guard replacements fail to completely cover the saw blade and tend to break while making a cut leading to user injuries that may be severe. About 7175 of these replacement blade guards were sold by Harbor Freight’s parts service departments. Stop using these blade guards and contact Harbor Freight at 1-800-444-3353 or via email at [email protected] to receive a free lower guard assembly kit and installation instructions.
