Dado and Molding Cutting
Instructions for operating the saw with Dado and Molding Head
sets are contained in the booklet furnished with these accessories.
ALWAYS USE AN APPROPRIATE BOSCH TABLE INSERT AND
WASHERS LISTED UNDER RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES
(see page 86).
ALWAYS PLACE THE BLADE WASHERS IN THE ORIGINAL
POSITIONS WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED DADO OR MOLDING
CUTTING.
INSTALLING A DADO SET
A dado set is an accessory system used to make non-thru grooves
or lap cuts on work pieces. These tools are commonly used in
furniture and cabinet building. After work pieces have been
properly dado cut, they can be tightly joined together. The 4100
table saw can accommodate dado cutting up to 13/16” wide in a
single pass.
To reduce the risk of injury, always
disconnect plug from power source before
changing blades.
To reduce the risk of injury, always use the
Bosch Dado Blade Table Insert No.TS1007
(comes with a dado accessory washer). Never make dado cuts
without this insert. Do not use dado sets larger than 8” diameter.
Never set dado cutters to any bevel angle other than the vertical 0°
angle. Follow all warnings and instructions shown here and those
that accompany your dado set. Failure to comply with these
warnings may result in serious bodily injuries.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not use dado
sets larger than 8 inches in diameter. The saw
is not designed to accept larger sized dados.
USING STACKED DADO SETS
NOTE: These instructions are based on using the Bosch 8” and 6”
Professional Dado Sets: Model Nos. PRO824DADO,
PRO840DADO and PRO624DADO. They also apply to most
standard stacked dado sets.
1. Disconnect plug from power source.
2. Remove the Barrier Guard Assembly and Anti-Kickback Device
(see page 26). Lower and lock the Riving Knife in its lowest
position.
3. Remove standard table insert plate. Raise saw blade to
maximum height.
4. Remove the arbor nut, then outer washer, saw blade, and inner
blade washer (see page 30). Note: For only dado cutting, the
washers must be installed differently.
5. Installing a dado stack (Fig. 68)
A) Place the (flat) outer washer back onto the arbor shaft. For
dado cutting, this will serve as the inner washer.
B) Place the desired parts of the dado set onto the arbor shaft.
C) Place the supplied washer from the Dado Accessory Kit
(TS1007) onto the outside of the dado stack.
D) Replace and tighten the arbor nut onto the arbor shaft.
6. Placing dado blades and chippers: (see Fig. 68)
• For 1/4” wide cuts, place the two outside dado blades (cutters)
on the shaft. The two dado outside blades may be different,
check for information on the blade and the manufacturer's
instructions for proper installation.
• For wider cuts (up to 13/16” maximum), chipper blades and
spacers can be placed only between the outside blades
(cutters).
