Abstract
A saw for performing chop cuts has a base, a cutting unit, and a pivot joint pivotally mounting the cutting unit to the base to enable the cutting unit to pivot towards or away from the base to perform chop cuts. The pivot joint has a cup-shaped section having an open end, a cap rotatably mounted on the open end of the cup-shaped section to form a sealed enclosed space within the cup-shaped section and cap, and a spring located inside of the sealed enclosed space. The spring is connected between the cup-shaped section and the cap. The spring applies a rotational biasing force between the cup-shaped section and the cap to urge relative rotation movement between the two.
