Hey everyone! I recently installed a dado stack on my SawStop for the first time and raised the blades into a brand new zero clearance insert. Now my garage smells like burnt plastic! Is that normal? Did I raise the blade too slowly or something?

Yeah, that smell can definitely happen! The blade spins super fast, like 36,000 RPM, and it can melt a bit of the plastic insert. It’s pretty common to have that plastic smell in the air when using it. Just take it slow next time and make sure everything's secure.
Makes sense! I appreciate the info.
