Abstract
The adjustable guide shoe is mounted on a support bar which is received within an elongated slot formed in the nose section of the power saw. The support bar is provided with plural sets of opposed cam faces which are provided in side-by-side pairs spaced longitudinally of the bar. A manually operated plunger is mounted in the nose section and is spring biased toward the support bar. The plunger bar includes cam surfaces adapted for complimentary wedging engagement with selected sets of cam faces on the support bar to achieve a self-locating function for the support and guide shoe mounted thereon.
