1. Dadoing is cutting a rabbet or wide groove into the

work. Most dado head sets are made up of two outside

saws and four or five inside cutters, (Fig. 61). Various

combinations of saws and cutters are used to cut

grooves from 1/8″ to 13/16″ for use in shelving, making

joints, tenoning, grooving, etc. The cutters are heavily

swaged and must be arranged so that this heavy

portion falls in the gullets of the outside saws, as

shown in Fig. 62. The saw and cutter overlap is shown in

Fig. 63, (A) being the outside saw, (B) an inside cutter,

and (C) a paper washer or washers, used as needed to

control the exact width of groove. A 1/4″ groove is cut

by using the two outside saws. The teeth of the saws

should be positioned so that the raker on one saw is

beside the cutting teeth on the other saw.

2. Attach the dado head set (D) Fig. 64, to the saw arbor.

NOTE: The outside arbor flange cannot be used with the

dado head set. Tighten the arbor nut against the dado head

set body. Do not lose the outside arbor flange. It will be

needed when reattaching a blade to the arbor.

The accessory dado head set table

insert (E) FIG. 64, must be used in place of the standard

table insert.

The blade guard and splitter assembly

cannot be used when dadoing and must be removed or

swung to the rear of the saw as explained previously in

this manual. Auxiliary jigs, fixtures, push sticks and

feather boards should also be used.

3. Fig. 65 shows a typical dado operation using the miter

gauge as a guide.

Never use the dado head in a bevel

position.

Always install the blade guard after the

operation is completed.

USING THE ACCESSORY DADO HEAD

The blade guard and splitter assembly cannot be used when dadoing or moulding. It must be removed

or swung to the rear of the saw as described in “USING ACCESSORY MOULDING CUTTERHEAD” SECTION.

Auxiliary jigs, fixtures, push sticks and feather boards should be used.
