Bosch GTS15-10 - Using Stacked Dado Sets

tate the cutters by hand to make sure all com-
ponents are tightly held and no interferences
exist.
10. Plug saw into power source.
11. Using scrap wood, make practice dado cuts
and adjust height accordingly.
NOTE: Because dado cuts are non-through cuts,
the Miter Gauge 14 can be used with the Rip Fence
9 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 Mi-
ter Gauge 14 and its end slides along the Rip Fence
9 at a preset distance.
Depending on the nal 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″
7. Install a dado stack:
• Place the desired parts of the dado set onto
the Arbor Shaft 51.
• Replace the Outer Washer 53 and securely
tighten the Arbor Nut 52 onto the Arbor Shaft
51.
• If the stack is less than or equal to 1/2″ in
width, re-assemble the stock Outer Washer 53
and Arbor Nut 52 normally, then tighten with
the blade wrench.
• If the stack is greater than 1/2″ in width, place
the stock Outer Washer 53 and the supplied
Clamp Assembly from the Dado Insert Kit
(TS1014) 111 onto the outside of the dado
stack. Thread the bolt from the clamp assem-
bly into the threaded hole in the Arbor Shaft
51, then tighten using a 10 mm wrench.
8. Placing dado blades and chippers:
• For 1/4″ (6 mm) wide cuts, place the two out-
side 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 instal-
lation.
• For wider cuts up to 13/16″ (20.6 mm), chip-
per blades and spacers can be placed only be-
tween the outside blades (cutters).
NOTE: The Arbor Nut 52 must be fully engaged
on the threads of the Arbor Shaft 51. Do not
exceed a stacked width greater than 13/16″
(20.6 mm) with this saw.
9. Lower the blades below the top of the Table
13 and insert the Bosch Dado Table Insert 112.
Raise the cutters to the desired depth of cut
(above the insert). Check that the tool is not
plugged in to a power source, then carefully ro-
