Locations for all necessary Dovetail Jig adjustments. Fig.2.
Front and back pieces mount horizontally on top of the jig and
side pieces mount vertically in the front of the jig. The insides
of the boards always face out!
1. The hand levers clamp your workpiece in place.
2. The fence knobs hold the fence in place. Loosen these knobs
to adjust fence position. Router travel is stopped when the
router base contacts the fence.
3. The upper side stops align the workpiece horizontally under
the template.
4. The front side stops align the vertical workpiece to the
horizontal workpiece.
5. The template knobs hold the template in place. Loosen these
knobs to adjust template position.
6. The clamping pressure knobs control the height of the
clamping bar and adjust cam clamping pressure.
CLAMPING ADJUSTMENT
The clamping pressure should be adjusted so the workpiece can be
easily slid under the bar when the hand lever is up. Push the hand lever
down to hold the workpiece in place, Fig.3. Do not use excessive force
when pushing the lever. If the lever will not lock firmly under normal
pressure, loosen the clamping pressure knobs slightly and try again.
Fig.3 shows clamping down the workpiece.
IMPORTANT
Since tails and pins are routed in one operation, drawer side must be
offset. The amount of offset is equal to the width of the template
fingers.
