Adjustable/bypassable bevel stop for compound miter saw

A compound miter saw comprising:

• a supporting frame;
• a turntable rotatably mounted on said supporting frame, said turntable including a saw blade slot extending through an upper planar surface and a fixed cylinder section mounted at one end of said turntable which extends generally transverse to the upper planar surface of said turntable;
• a movable cylinder section rotatably mounted to said fixed cylinder section, said movable cylinder section pivotally mounting a power driven saw blade that moves along a predetermined path from an upper raised position to a lower operational position that includes the saw blade slot in said turntable;
• bevel adjustment means for selectively rotatably moving said movable cylinder section relative to said fixed cylinder section in order to provide bevel adjustment of said power driven saw blade relative to said turntable;
• and
• adjustable/bypassable bevel stop means for predetermined bevel stop settings as well as for over-riding such bevel stop settings when angles beyond the bevel stop settings are desired without re-adjusting said bevel stop means, the adjustable/bypassable bevel stop means including bevel stops mounted on said fixed cylinder section for engaging an index pin mounted on said movable cylinder section when the bevel adjustment means is operated for positioning the movable cylinder section between the bevel stop settings, said index pin being selectively movable into and out of engagement with said bevel stops for movement of the movable cylinder section beyond the bevel stop settings, the index pin being longitudinally movable between an engaged and disengaged position relative to the bevel stop in a direction generally transverse to the plane of movement of the movable cylinder section relative to the fixed cylinder section.
