TO MAKE A DADO CUT
See Figure 62.
An optional dado throat plate is required for this procedure
(see the Accessories section of this manual and check with
the retailer where the table saw was purchased). All blades
and dado sets must not be rated less than the speed of
this tool.
WARNING:
Unplug the saw to prevent accidental starting
that could result in possible injury.
n Unplug your saw.
n Remove the blade guard assembly.
n Retighten the thumbscrew.
n Remove the throat plate and the saw blade.
n Remove the inner blade washer and both the small and
large spacers.
n Mount the dado blade, using the blade and chippers
appropriate for the desired width of cut.
n Reinstall the arbor nut.
NOTE: The outer blade washer may be used provided
the arbor shaft extends slightly beyond the arbor nut.
n Make sure the arbor nut is fully engaged and the arbor
extends past a securely tightened arbor nut.
n Install the dado throat plate and rotate the blade by hand
to make sure it turns freely then lower the blade.
WARNING:
Always put outer blade washer and the saw's
throat plate in proper location when changing
back to saw blade. Failure to do so may result in
possible injury and damage to the tool.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Always use push blocks, push sticks, or feather-
boards when making dado cuts to avoid the risk
of serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use blades rated less than the speed of
this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result
in personal injury.
