THE MAXIMUM WIDTH DADO CUT FOR
THIS SAW IS 1/2 INCH.
THE BLADE GUARD AND SPLITTER
ASSEMBLY CANNOT BE USED WHEN DADOING. IT
MUST BE REMOVED OR SWUNG TO THE REAR OF
THE SAW.
Before dadoing, loosen wing nut (A) Fig. 44 and take off
the blade guard and splitter assembly (B). Keep
assembly handy to replace it after dadoing.
AUXILIARY JIGS, FIXTURES, PUSH
STICKS AND FEATHER BOARDS SHOULD BE USED.
ACCESSORY DADO CUTTERHEAD
than three feet, use a work support at the rear of the
saw to keep the workpiece from falling off the saw
table.
3. If the ripped work is less than 6 inches wide, a push
stick should always be used to complete the feed, as
shown in Fig. 41. The push stick can easily be made
from scrap material as explained in the section
“CONSTRUCTING A PUSH STICK.”
4. Ripping narrow pieces can be dangerous if not done
carefully.
WHEN THE PIECE IS TOO NARROW
FOR A PUSH STICK TO BE EFFECTIVE - AND IF THE
WORKPIECE IS SHORT ENOUGH - USE A
PUSHBOARD. WHEN RIPPING MATERIAL UNDER 2
INCHES IN WIDTH, ORDINARY PUSH STICKS MAY
INTERFERE WITH THE BLADE GUARD.
When using a pushboard, the width of the pushboard
must be added to the width of the rip fence position
setting. A flat pushboard can be constructed as shown in
Fig. 43 and should be used as shown in Fig. 42. NOTE:
GUARD REMOVED FOR CLARITY. ALWAYS USE THE
GUARD.
NOTE: Some special operations require the addition of
an auxiliary wood facing to the fence, as explained in the
section “USING AUXILIARY WOOD FACING ON THE
RIP FENCE” and use of a push stick.
Fig. 43A
USING AUXILIARY WOOD FACING
ON RIP FENCE
When performing special cutting operations – and that
operation may cause the cutting implement to contact
the fence – it is necessary to add a wood facing (A) Fig.
43A, to one side of the rip fence as shown. The wood
facing is attached to the fence with wood screws through
holes drilled in the fence. 3/4-inch stock is suitable for
most work, although an occasional job may require one-
inch facing.
