FEMALE JOINT

 

Refer to the 

diagrams on the different joints avail-
able. Prepare the female worktop 
with the laminate face down and the 
post formed (curved edge) towards 
you. 

2.  Insert 3 pins in the holes marked 

3. Insert 

the 

4

th

 pin in the hole depend-

ant on your worktop width, e.g. If 
your worktop is 700mm wide then 
insert the 4

th

 pin in the hole marked 

700 (see diagram G). 

4.  Make sure the 3 pins in the holes 

marked F are firmly pushed against 
the front post formed edge and the pin in the hole marked with the worktop width is pushed firmly against the 
edge of the worktop. 

5.  Clamp the jig to the worktop double-checking that all 4 pins are still against the worktop. Make sure the clamps 

will not obstruct the router path.

CUTTING METHOD

 

 

 

7. 

Refer to the instructions on page 6 
for cutting method.

 

8. 

FEMALE BOLT RECESSES    

Prepare the female worktop with the 
laminate face down. 

9.  Insert 3 pins in the holes marked 

’B’

 (see diagram C). 

10.  Make sure the 3 pins are firmly 

pushed against the front cut out and 
the edge of the worktop (see diagram 
I) 

11.  Clamp the jig to the worktop checking 

that all 3 pins are still firmly against the 
worktop. Make sure the clamps will not 
obstruct the router path. 

12.  You will need a depth of 20mm for the 

worktop connectors.  Do not exceed 
10mm per cut. 

13.  Cut the bolt recesses out, each time 

clearing the waste material after each cut.

MALE BOLT RECESSES 

 

Prepare the male worktop with the 
laminate face down. 

10.  Insert 2 pins in the holes marked B 

and 1 pin in the hole marked with 

both ‘B’ and ‘

 90

°

’.(see diagram L). 

11.  Make sure the 3 pins are firmly 

pushed against the front cut out and 
the edge of the worktop. 

12.  Clamp the jig to the worktop checking 

that all 3 pins are still firmly against 
the worktop. Make sure the clamps 
will not obstruct the router path. 

13.  You will need a depth of 20mm for 

the worktop connectors.  Do not 
exceed 10mm per cut. 

14.  Cut the bolt recesses out, each time 

clearing the waste material after each cut.

 

 

 
1. 

MALE JOINT

    

Prepare the male 

worktop with the laminate face up. 

2.  Insert 2 pins in holes marked ‘

 90

°

(see diagram J) 

3.  Refer to the page on ‘cutting to 

length’ to find out where to mark the 
pencil line to determine the position of 
the jig along the length of the 
worktop. 

4.  Make sure the 2 pins in the holes 

marked 

 90

°

 are firmly pushed 

against the post formed edge. 

5.  Clamp the jig to the worktop checking 

that both pins are still against the 
worktop.  

6.  Make sure the clamps will not 

obstruct the router path.
