To
reduce
the
risk
of injury,
never
use a single
dado
blade
for normal
saw thru-cutting.
Never use chippers
without
both outside cutters.
Read and follow all
Operation/Safety
Instructions
included with the
dado set.
NOTE: With this saw, do not exceed a stacked width
greater than 1/2". Use combination
nut/washer
sup-
plied with the TS1013
7. Lower the blades below the table top and insert
the Bosch Dado Table Insert (TS1013)
(Fig. 57).
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 all components
are tightly held and no interferences
exist.
8. Plug saw into power source. Using scrap wood,
make practice
dado cuts and adjust height ac-
cordingly.
To
reduce
the
risk
of injury,
never pass your hands over the
cutting
dado blades. Dado cuts are non-thru (blind)
cuts. Many times the cutters cannot be seen during
cutting.
See page 31 for instructions on Non Thru-
sawing.
To reduce
the
risk
of injury,
never
make freehand
cuts. The
work piece must be held against the saw's fence or
miter gauge as it is being fed. Whenever
possible,
use push sticks
and push blocks for cutting
(see
page 30). Always
use feather boards,
attached to
the table or fence, when rip cutting (See page 31).
When cross cutting, firmly hold work piece against
the miter gauge (see page 27).
NOTE:
Because
dado cuts are non-thru cuts, the
miter gauge can be used with the fence locked in
place. This is helpful
when making
repeat 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 dis-
tance.
Depending on the final depth of cut and/or the den-
sity of the material, it may be required to make mul-
tiple cuts starting with small depths of 1/4" to 1/2"
and progressing
to final depth. When performing ex-
tensive repetitive dado cutting, periodically check the
work pieces
to see that the depth of cut is main-
tained.
RETURNING
SAW TO NORMAL
THRU-CUTTING
After completing your Dado cutting, be sure to return
the inner and outer washers to the original positions
(see page15 for details). It is important that the orig-
inal 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, do
not use adjustable
or "wobble"
dado sets on this saw. Adjustable
dado sets can
be easily set to positions
that may interfere
with
working components
of this saw.
