3.  Instructions for operating the dado is packed with 

the separately purchased dado set.

4.  The arbour (1) on this saw restricts the maximum 

width of the cut to 1/2 in. 

5.  It is not necessary to install the outside flange 

(2) before threading on the arbour nut (3) for the 

maximum 1/2 in. dado cuts. Make sure that the 

arbour nut (3) is tight, and that at least one thread of 

the arbour sticks out past the nut.

6.  Use only the correct number of round outside blades 

and inside chippers as shown in the dado set’s 

instruction manual. Blade/chippers must not exceed 

1/2 in. total in width.

7.  Check the saw to ensure that the dado will not strike 

the housing, insert, or motor when in operation.

For your own safety, always replace the blade, blade 

guard assembly, anti-kickback pawl assembly, riving 

knife assembly and table insert when you finish the 

dado operation.
