Commonly used in furniture joinery, a dado is a straight channel cut in the face of the workpiece. Dadoes can be cut using either a dedicated dado blade or a standard saw blade. Figure 57 shows a cutaway view of a dado cut being made with a dado blade.

The included dado table insert must be installed and used when a dado blade is installed—unless a zero clearance table insert is used instead.

The table saw motor is pushed to its limits when making a dado cut with a dado blade. If the motor starts to bog down, slow down your feed rate, reduce the depth of cut and make multiple shallow passes.
