Dado Insert

Dadoing is cutting a rabbet or a wide groove into

the workpiece. The dado insert, shown in Figure

27, is included as standard equipment with your

saw. Rotate the set screws as needed to level

the dado insert with table surface.

Do not use the standard table

insert for dadoing operations.
