G0605X/G0606X Extreme Series 12" Table Saw

Commonly used in furniture joinery, a dado is a

straight channel cut in the face of the workpiece.

Dadoes can be cut using either a dedicated dado

blade or a standard saw blade.

The table saw motor is pushed to its limits when

making a dado cut. If the motor starts to bog

down, slow down your feed rate and make mul

-

tiple shallow passes.

DO NOT make a through-cut with a dado

blade. Dado blades are not designed for

through cuts. Failure to follow this warning

could result in serious personal injury.

Dado operations require proper procedures

to avoid serious injury. Extra care must be

taken to prevent kickback when using dado

blades. Any movement of the workpiece

away from the fence will cause kickback. Be

certain that stock is flat and straight. Failure

to follow these warnings could result in

serious personal injury.

5. Raise the dado blade up to the desired

depth of cut (depth of dado channel desired).

When cutting deep dadoes,

take more than

one pass to reduce the risk of kickback.

Dado Cutting

Figure 47. Stacked or wobble dado cut.

The danger of kickback increases relative

to the depth and width of a cut. Reduce the

risk of kickback by making multiple passes

to achieve the desired depth of cut. Failure

to follow these warnings could result in seri

-

ous personal injury.

6. Adjust the distance between the fence and the

inside edge of the blade as shown in

Figure

47 to dado the length of a workpiece.

To use a stacked or wobble dado blade

:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the table insert, the blade guard and

splitter, and the s

aw blade.

3. Install the riving knife.

4. Attach and adjust the dado blade system

according to the dado blade manufacturer’s

instructions, then

install the dado insert.

7. 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.

8. Reconnect the saw to the power source.
