I normally tackle the problem from a different point of view.
Schedule every day but not the "incremantal backup" but a "command" and
then in the script i do simply something like:

 case $(date "+%a") in
 Mon|Tue|Wed|Fri)
        do what you need to do
        ;;
  *)
        exit
        ;;
 esac


I hope this help
