That one is quite a surprise. You must have bought one that was made from different specs than the ones made in the last couple of years. I went through 3 before I just said "give me my money back" and they said "too late". I told this story before, but when I sat that junk HF chump saw out out with the trash, I told the trash man that I had the receipt with it and if he wanted I'd give him the receipt and he could go get him a new one. The trash man literally passed on taking it. He said he's seen dozens and dozens of them thrown away and didn't want to waste his time. The junk chop saws from Horrible Freight I had literally had a very, very difficult time cutting a 1/4" bolt in half!! Trying to cut up some 2"X3"X1/4 angle destroyed all 3 chump saws I had from them. I was really peeved after the 3rd one died just like the 2 previous ones and they said all they'd do is give me a replacement. It would cost me far more in gas, not to mention time, to bother replacing those pieces of junk.

Also, as I've mentioned before, I tried to give #3 to my dad. He'd already heard of how terrible they were and gave it back. He didn't even want it for no cost. I wasted my time and burned it up on the first cut when I had it delivered back to me by my dad, unused. I bought myself a quality one between #2 and #3 Horrible Freight chump saw and have made hundreds and hundreds of cuts with it and have had no problem. What's funny about that is the good one I bought is a DeWalt that is made in China. I guess that goes to prove that not everything made in China is junk. It all depends on how the company having it made places their quality requirements.
