7.Re-adjust the fence so the blade is aligned with the other edge of the intended dado channel. Be sure to keep the cuts within your marks; otherwise, the dado will be too big.

8.Continue making cuts toward the center of the dado with your subsequent cuts until the dado is complete.

Always replace the blade guard after dado- ing is complete. Failure to follow this warn- ing could result in serious personal injury.

Rabbet Cutting

Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is a straight groove cut in the edge of the workpiece. Rabbets can be cut using either a dado blade (Figure 29) or a standard saw blade.

Rabbet operations present very real haz- ards requiring proper procedures to avoid serious injury. The chance of kickback is always greater when dado blades are used so extra care must be taken. Any movement of the stock 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.

To attach a sacrificial fence:

Rabbet cutting with a dado blade requires the use of a sacrificial fence attachment as shown in Figure 35.
