Bench saw

A bench saw, comprising:

• a support structure with a lay-on section which provides a lay-on surface for the laying-on of a workpiece, as well as a saw blade which engages through an opening of the lay-on section, so that at least a part of the saw blade is located below a lay-on section lower side,
• further comprising a housing arrangement which is located below the lay-on section lower side and which surrounds the part of the saw blade which is located below the lay-on section lower side,
• wherein the saw blade is pivotable together with the housing arrangement relative to the lay-on section, in order to adjust an angle between a cutting plane of the saw blade and the lay-on surface,
• wherein the bench saw further comprises a cover flap which covers a gap between the housing arrangement and the lay-on section lower side, said gap arising on pivoting the housing arrangement, the cover flap covering the gap in order to thus prevent a user of the bench saw from being able to grip through the gap towards the saw blade, wherein the cover flap comprises a first fastening section and is pivotably mounted on a housing shell of the housing arrangement via the first fastening section, wherein the cover flap comprises a second fastening section, with which the cover flap is movably mounted in a guide slot of the support structure.
