DADO CUTS (FIG. XX)

1.To perform dado cutting with a stacked dado blade set a special insert must be used. See page 30 and 31 for ordering information. Remove the saw blade, original table insert and blade guard. Install the dado and dado blade insert.

2.Instruction for operating the dado is packed with the separately purchased dado set. (not included with unit)

3.The arbor (1) on this saw restricts the maximum width of the cut to 13/16 in. (20.6 mm).

4.When making full 13/16 in. (20.6 mm) dado cuts, it is not necessary to install the outside flange (2) before screwing on the arbor nut (3). Make sure that the arbor nut (3) is tight, and that at least one thread of the arbor sticks out past the nut.

5.Do not exceed 8 inches (203.2 mm) diameter dadoes and keep the width 13/16 in. (20.6 mm) or less. It will be necessary to remove the blade guard and riving knife when using a dado blade. Always use caution when operating a dado blade.

6.Use only the correct number of round outside blades and inside chippers as shown in the dado set’s instruction manual. Blade or chipper must not exceed 13/16 inch (20.6 mm).

7.Check saw to ensure that the dado will not strike the housing, insert, or motor when in operation.

!WARNING

For your own safety, always replace the blade, blade guard assembly, and blade insert when you are finished with the dado operation.

!CAUTION

A qualified electrician should do the conversion, or the machine can be taken to an Authorized Service Center. When completed, the machine must conform to the National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances.

The machine is converted by re-wiring the motor for 240 volts, installing a 240 volt plug on the power supply cord and replacing the switch with one that is rated for 240 volt operation.

Be sure the 240 volt plug is only used in an outlet plug. No adapter should be used with the 240 volt plug.

In all cases, make certain that the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a quali-

fied electrician check the receptacle.
