Milwaukee Lower Guard Lever
Model Number: 44-10-1008
The Milwaukee 44-10-1008 is a genuine OEM Lower Guard Lever for use in compatible Milwaukee circular saws. The lower guard lever is the spring-loaded lever that allows the operator to manually retract the lower blade guard when beginning a cut — particularly for bevel cuts, plunge cuts, or when cutting material where the guard cannot self-open automatically. In normal operation the lower guard retracts automatically as the saw contacts the material and springs back over the blade when the cut is complete. When manual retraction is needed, the lever provides a safe way to retract the guard without touching the blade. A broken, bent, or missing lower guard lever that cannot retract the guard or fails to release it correctly requires replacement to maintain safe saw operation and correct guard function.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM lower guard lever ensures the correct pivot geometry, spring engagement, and dimensional fit for the guard mechanism it operates. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct lever for your specific unit.
