Radial Saws are similar to both a chop saw and a miter saw but they offer more options for making cuts. A radial saw will move forward and backwards on sliders and can also be tilted to get an angled cut. A radial saw can also use different cutting medians such as shapers and drum sanders. With a radial saw the operator moves the saw across the material being cut by pulling it towards themselves as well as pushing it away. With a radial saw there should be both a protective guard over the blade as well as kick back fingers on both sides of the blade to help prevent scattering debris when doing a rip cut. A radial saw will also have a return device, with the front end higher than the rear of the saw. This allows the cutting head to return to its normal position after making a cut. Just like other saws, personal protective equipment should always be worn during operation
