Make sure you find a dado throat plate, or be prepared to make your own (I made my own for the Ridgid saw by using a flush trim router with my original plate to get the size right). You won't be able to use the factory throat plate with a dado stack unless you have a very small stack of about 1/4".
In order to get truly accurate dados, I bought a 5/8 bolt with a washer and nut. I drilled a hole through a small piece of plywood smaller than the dado set. If I need a specific width, I mount the dado set on the 5/8 bolt and tighten the nut. Then I get out the calipers and measure outer tooth to outer tooth, and add shims as necessary to get the exact width I need. It's sort of like this much more expensive system from Woodpeckers:
