Adjustable Or Wobble Dado Sets - skilsaw SPT99T Consignes D'utilisation/De Sécurité

For wider cuts (up to 1/2" maximum for the
•
SPT5005-DD insert), chipper blades and
spacers can be placed only between the
outside blades (cutters) .
To reduce the risk of injury,
WARNING
never use a single dado
blade for normal saw through sawing. Never
use chippers without both outside cutters.
Read and follow all Operation/Safety Instruc-
tions included with the dado set.
NOTE: With this saw, do not exceed a stacked
width greater than 1/2''. Use combination nut/
washer supplied with the SPT5005-DD insert .
7 . Lower the blades below the table top and in-
sert the SKILSAW Dado Table Insert
(Fig . 61) . Adjust the dado insert so that it is
flush with the saw table surface. Raise the
cutters to the desired depth of cut (above the
insert) . Check that the tool is not plugged
into a power source; then carefully rotate the
cutters by hand to make sure that all compo-
nents are tightly held and no interferences
exist .
8 . Plug the saw into the power source . Using
scrap wood, make practice dado cuts and
adjust height accordingly .
To reduce the risk of injury,
WARNING
never pass your hands over
the cutting dado blades. Dado cuts are non-
through (blind) cuts . Many times the cutters can-
not be seen during cutting . See instructions for
"Non Through Sawing ."
To reduce the risk of injury,
WARNING
never make freehand cuts.

The work piece must be held against the saw's
fence or miter gauge as it is being fed . When-
ever possible, use push sticks and push blocks
for cutting . Always use feather boards, attached
to the table or fence, when rip cutting . See the
"Work Helpers" section . When cross cutting,
firmly hold work piece against the miter gauge.
NOTE: Because dado cuts are non-through cuts,
the miter gauge can be used with the fence
locked in place . This is helpful when making re-
peat dado cross-cuts from the ends of more
than one work piece . Each piece is held against
the miter gauge and its end slides along the
fence at a preset distance .
Depending on the final depth of cut and/or the
density of the material, it may be required to make
multiple cuts starting with small depths of 1/4" to
1/2" and progressing to the final depth. When per-
forming extensive repetitive dado cutting, periodi-
cally check the work pieces to see that the depth
of cut is maintained .
RETURNING SAW TO NORMAL
THROUGH SAWING
After completing your Dado cutting, be sure to re-
turn the inner and outer washers to their original
positions (see "Removal and Installation of the
Blade" details) . It is important that the original
equipment washers are in the proper positions so
that the saw blade always aligns with the perma-
nently installed riving knife .

ADJUSTABLE OR WOBBLE DADO SETS

To reduce the risk of injury,
