5.0 out of 5 stars A must own add-on to an already excellent saw, May 23, 2002

By	"js3862" (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews

The extension is a great add to the Bosch 4000 saw. It installs easily and operates smoothly. The extension is all steel construction and uses aluminum brackets to attach to the underside of the table. The extra support is great for crosscutting long boards and definitely saves time not having to setup sawhorses or roller supports.

A tip to the perfectionist group - the extension does have a minor amount of slop/droop (about 1/16" in my case) when extended. I remedied the problem with one 1/4" internal tooth lock washer placed between the bracket and the body of the saw on both the front and rear. Torque it down to flatten the washer as much as possible being careful not to strip the saw housing. Placing the washer on the inside bolt of the two keeps the extension fairly level throughout the span of the extension.

4.0 out of 5 stars Functionally great, but with defects, November 13, 2005

By	S. Lewis (Danville, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My left side support arrived with the threads missing from one of the support rods. It appears to have been misformed during the machining process. I had to contact Amazon for a replacement, which they promptly sent out at their expense. They also paid for return shipment of the defective unit.

Others have noted that they shimmed the inside mount slightly to compensate for droop. There is a bit of adjustment in the support arm itself- allowing you to adjust it up by a 16th or so.

Here's a tip: If you purchase the rear support as well, you'll notice that the aluminum support brackets are tapped and include a 'set screw' which is useful to lock the position of the support both for transport, and during use. For some reason, the left support does not include this feature. I picked up a similar thumb screw/ set screw from my local hardware store and added the same functionality to my left side support. Just drill a hole in the thickest part of the aluminum support, and tap threads into it. Now screw in your thumbscrew. No more accidental openings during transport.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful, December 2, 2002

By	Jeff Wells (South Bay, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This side extension is very worth the money. It's easy to install and works smoothly. It does droop a bit so may need some washers on the far bolts to level it out.
If you have the Bosch 4000, you should have this side extension.
