Cutting Dadoes with a Dado Blade
Figure 62. Example of dado being cut with
multiple light cuts, instead of one deep cut.
To cut a dado with a dado blade:
1. adjust the dado blade to the desired depth of
cut.
2. adjust the distance between the fence and the
inside edge of the blade, as shown in
Figure
61, to dado the length of a workpiece.
—
if dadoing across the workpiece, use the
miter gauge and carefully line up the
desired cut with the dado blade. do not
use the fence in combination with the miter
gauge.
3. reconnect the saw to the power source.
4. turn the saw
ON
. the blade should run
smooth, with no vibrations.
5. When the blade has reached full speed, per-
form a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.
6. if the cut is satisfactory, repeat the cut with
the actual workpiece.
