my sister(about 120 mi away at the time -no internet connection) called me with a question about the new mitersaw they bought (930pm local time) There is a "u" section bracket (guard) that hangs below the blade . It is rubbing on the blade . I assume that is not the intended purpose of the guard. I went to the dewalt website to look at the exploded view of the saw. Turns out the part is called out as the "guard,rear" Looks to be made out of sheetmetal. I asked her if it looked like a sheet or cast metal part before I suggested that she bend the offending arm for a bit of clearence from the blade. She couldn't tell the difference. Anyone who has a saw know if it is indeed bendable? Thanks Pat
