Gravity-Rise(TM) Takes Bosch 4000 Table Saw to New Level Rugged, Portable and Easy-to-use



Mount Prospect, Ill., February 21, 2005 - Today, Bosch Power Tools and Accessories, a division of the Robert Bosch Tool Corporation, raises its award-winning 4000 table saw to another level by introducing the TS2000 Gravity-Rise(TM) portable table saw stand. The Bosch Gravity-Rise provides serious tool users such as general contractors, trim carpenters, woodworkers and remodelers with exactly what the job demands; a rugged, portable, and most of all, easy to use stand.

Unlike other stands on the market, the Bosch Gravity-Rise is practically effortless to operate. With a simple turn of the release lever and the user's guidance, the weight and balance of the stand smoothly raises the saw into position. And for transport, the same simple process in reverse keeps things moving along.

Bosch engineers perfected the one-step process by utilizing gravity's affect on the weight of the tool and stand. This special process saves users time by eliminating all the extra pins, folding legs or fasteners; factors that have proven frustrating in the past. Now, once the saw is secured to the stand, it can go anywhere without ever being removed.

Constructed of heavy gauge steel, the Gravity-Rise is built to last while being carted from jobsite to jobsite in the roughest of conditions. Eight-inch treaded pneumatic wheels easily handle rough terrain and make tool transport nearly effortless. And because of the Gravity-Rise's balanced design, one person can load it in and out of a truck by simply pivoting one side up and in.

The Gravity-Rise is designed to accommodate most manufacturers' portable table saws. Professionals looking for a new table saw can also purchase the Bosch 4000-09, a standard Bosch 4000 series table saw that comes complete with its own Gravity-Rise stand.
