I can't see the ad but my 10" HF has a blade guard.


My 12" HF (orange compound slider model) has a blade guard that
automatically retracts when the saw is lowered, so it pretty much never gets in the way.

I like the design, and have been very happy with the saw.

I don't know of a miter saw with a guard that doesn't do that.

My Delta also has a "friction fit" at the top so that I can lift it all the
way up and it stays out of the way when I change the blade.
