Can you use a molding head in the Saw stop? Also can you use the Freud SD608 dial a width with the saw?

No on molding head cutters. Not sure about Freud SD608.

I know the info on the molding head is in the owners manual which you can download from SawStop.com .

Jay,
Yes you can use one. I have one and it works fine on my ICS. You do need to use the dado cartridge, however but that goes without saying.

The Magic Moulder is too small for the dado cartridge to work (on my older industrial saw). I made a workaround using some very heavy gauge copper wire screwed into the dado cart. and looped up to the arbor to pick up the eddy current. Desperate times and all . . .

Not sure about the moulding head.

The Freud SD608 will work. That is what I have and it is a great dado set. You do need to leave the washer off and use the nut only on the arbor.
