Freud SD606 6-Inch Dial-A-Width Dado- user experiences?

I'm really interested in this unit because it can be set for width, it would seem, very easily and very precisely.

If anybody here has experience with this on the Shopsmith, I would very much appreciate hearing about it.

By the way, if you can't find it on the Freud website, neither can the Freud rep I heard from, but he assures me they do still make it.

I have a Freud 8 inch version which I have used for years and love it. For most operations I use a router but occasionally a dado blade is needed.

Mason,

Do you use the Dial-A-Width on the SS. I have one and recall it being too wide for the dado adaptor. I had to buy a standard stack dado.
