WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, (CPSC), DeWALT Industrial Tool Co., Baltimore, Md., is voluntarily recalling about 55,000 heavy-duty, lightweight circular saws. The spindle on the saw may slip, causing the blade to contact the lower guard, posing a hazard to the consumer from an exposed blade.

DeWALT received one report of the blade slipping. A consumer received minor scratches to his hand after his spindle slipped.
