4100-09 Bosch table saw

It arrived Sept. 15, 2009. The box is huge and measures 30" x 21" x 38 3/4"


Opening the box, you would see the manual taped to the top side of the box. and the first parts you would see would be the insert plate, the miter gauge and the fence.


once the top portion is removed, the table saw would be visible

removing the table saw from the box, the stand parts become visible.



I got everything out of the box and placed them on the floor for assembly making sure there are no missing parts.


following the manual, I assembled the stand one piece at a time.






until the Gravity Rise stand could , well stand.


mounting the table saw (which came assembled) to the gravity rise stand is now a breeze.


installing the rest of the hardware is easy and almost self explanatory.


with the safety features in place, the splitter holds the anti-kickback pawls and the barrier guard assembly.


removing the safety features just to show the splitter. notice it being above the blade.


now with a tool free lever located in the saw blade side, it can be adjusted to serve as a riving knife. this is very useful for non-thru cuts such as dadoes and grooves.


ready for cutting, the top is 38" from the floor and is very stable, no movement from the feet, not even a wiggle. Solid!


folded, it tucks away easy and moves very easily from one place to another leaving a small footprint for easy storage.


I haven't had the chance to do much test with this, given time I will update my reviews on it. cheers for now,
