G0444/G0444Z 10" Table Saw -35-
Figure 47. Single-blade dado cut.
4. Turn on the saw and allow the blade to reach
full speed.
5. Perform the cutting operation.
7. Reconnect the saw to the power source.
8. With one finger ready to push the STOP but-
ton, turn the saw ON. The blade should run
smooth with no vibrations or wobbling.
9. When the blade has reached full speed, per-
form a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.
10. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat the cut with
the actual workpiece.
Using a standard saw blade:
1. Mark the width of the dado cut on the work-
piece. Note—Include marks on the edge of
the workpiece so the cut path can be aligned
when the workpiece is lying on the table.
2. Raise the blade to the desired depth of cut
(depth of dado channel desired).
3. Align the blade to cut one of the dado sides
as shown in Figure 47.
6. Re-adjust the fence so the blade is aligned
with the other edge of the intended dado
channel (Figure 48). Note—Be sure to keep
the cuts within your marks; otherwise, the
dado will be too big.
7. Continue making cuts toward the center of
the dado with your subsequent cuts until the
dado is complete.

Always replace the blade guard after dado-
ing is complete. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could result in serious personal injury.
