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.

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

Rabbet Cutting

Always replace the blade guard after dado-
ing is complete. Failure to follow this warn-
ing 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 54

.

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 49

) 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.
