Sounds interesting. I've only noticed Saw Stop mention the cartridge. One example: "Do not use dado sets with solid-plate interior chippers or blades with molding heads, as neither brake cartridge is designed to stop those blade types."
What is your source for this info please?
Obviously if there is a warning about this I want to make sure my dado set(s) comply.
