Easy-Cut Prong Guide Instructions
Congratulations on your purchase of the Allset® Easy-Cut Prong Guide.With this
remarkable prong-cutting aid, you can create level, uniform and precise cuts easily
and repeatedly, time after time. Its unique design ensures a level and uniform-
height cut on square, round or any other shape of prong. It also includes a unique,
adjustable stop guide in the back that precisely controls the depth of each cut.
With the Easy-Cut Prong Guide you can:
cut perfectly level stone seats regardless of the
setting shape—it is perfect for 45°, 70° and 90°,
so you can even cut perfect seats in the prongs of
large pendants, basket settings, solitaire mountings
and more.
gain precise, accurate control over the depth of cut
so that finished prongs are stronger.
adjust and position the setting precisely so the
bur won't grab or roll itself around the prongs,
preventing the scratching that can result.
reduce stone breakage because you don't have to
force prongs while setting.
And, like every Allset kit and component, the Easy-
Cut Prong Guide is made in the USA of highly durable
materials and and is designed to stand up to multiple
demands and configurations.
Safety Notes
1. Always use eye protection when cutting prongs and channels with your AllSet® Easy-Cut Prong Guide or when using
any power tool.
2. Some prong- cutting operations may require close placement of the hands to sharp, cutting edges. To avoid injury,
please pay careful attention to hand placement, avoid distractions and do not operate prong-cutting equipment
without your full attention.
3. For safety and effectiveness with any power tool, maintain a clean work surface and a clean general work area.
