Easy install and fit perfectly
I broke my locking handle and so bought this one to replace it. It was an easy install and fit perfectly. There were no issues in shipping or in my install of the handle. Would buy another if I ever break a handle again.

This was a very easy repair. New part almost fell in.
Putting on the new lever made the miter saw work like it was supposed to again. Definitely worth it.
