Blade guard
The blade guard is a protective cover for the top part of
the cutting blade. It gives protection if parts from a
damaged cutting blade or other objects eject in the
direction of the operator. The blade guard prevents
injury from the cutting blade. The blade guard is also a
part of the water cooling system that keeps the cutting
blade cool during operation.
