I have inherited (literally) some tools after a friend. Included is a
stackable dado (Craftsman) and a wobble dial-a-dado (Rockwell). However, I
have no instructions for their use, and therefore could someone help me
with
them. The wobble dado seems rather simple to use: I dial the width, and
this
is it. Is this as simple as that?

Yup, stackables are generally considered to be the better quality blade.
Wobbles dont cut the sides of the dado exactly square to the bottom and the
bottom will have a very subtle arc.

I also find wobblers harder to align with the intended cut. I have to
match the widest part of the blade to the cut marks, which is not
always accurate, so I resort to turning the saw on and making
ever-so-slight tentative cuts until I'm on the mark.

Stackables are the same width around the circumference, I just need
align the blade to the cut marks.
