USING ACCESSORY

DADO HEAD

IMPORTANT: THE BLADE GUARD AND SPLITTER

ASSEMBLY CANNOT BE USED WHEN DADOING OR

MOULDING AND MUST BE REMOVED OR SWUNG

TO THE REAR OF THE SAW.

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, as shown in Fig. 130.

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.

131. The saw and cutter overlap is shown in Fig. 132, (A)

being the outside saw, (B) an inside cutter, and (C) a

paper washer or washers which can be 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.

The dado head set (D) Fig. 133, is assembled to the saw

arbor as shown. NOTE: THE OUTSIDE ARBOR FLANGE

CAN NOT BE USED WITH THE DADO HEAD SET,

TIGHTEN THE ARBOR NUT AGAINST THE DADO

HEAD SET BODY. DO NOT LOOSE THE OUTSIDE

ARBOR FLANGE, FOR IT WILL BE NEEDED WHEN

REATTACHING A BLADE TO THE UNISAW ARBOR.

ALSO, THE ACCESSORY DADO HEAD SET TABLE

INSERT (E) FIG. 133, MUST BE USED IN PLACE OF

THE STANDARD TABLE INSERT.

IMPORTANT: 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

Fig. 134, shows a typical dado operation using the miter

gage as a guide.

WARNING: NEVER USE THE DADO HEAD IN A

BEVEL POSITION.

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS INSTALL BLADE GUARD

AFTER OPERATION IS COMPLETED.
