PRODUCT SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS
>
To avoid serious injury, keep hands and fingers away from the drilling area. Maintain
awareness of the bit’s entry and exit areas at all times.
Setup
1.
Attach the 3/8" Drill Guide to the Jig Frame with the two
Three-Wing Knobs and Washers.
Fig. 1
. Make sure that the
lettering on the Drill Guide faces backward (away from the Jig
Frame, so it can be read) and that the left Three-Wing Knob is
inserted into the slot marked for the 3/8" block. The posts of
the Three-Wing Knobs thread directly into the Drill Guide.
Don’t fully tighten the Knobs at this point.
2.
Slide the 3/8" Drill Guide to the “A” position, following the
directional arrow marked on the Jig Frame. Tighten the
Three-Wing Knobs.
3.
Set the drilling depth for your Beadlock tenon stock. There
are two scales molded into the back face of the jig to make this
easy. Just slide the 3/8" Stop Collar onto the 3/8" Split-Point
Drill Bit and insert the bit in the hole in the 3/8" Drill Guide
closest to the scale you want to use.
The scale on the right lets you set the drilling depth for
standard Beadlock tenon stock by bit diameter. For 3/8"
stock, simply lower the bit until the outside of the bit’s cutting
edge (not the tip) aligns with the 3/8" line and use the
included Hex Key to tighten the Stop Collar.
Fig. 2.
If you use the inch scale, make sure to set the bit depth to
one-half the length of your Beadlock tenon stock plus 1/8"
to allow room for glue squeeze-out.
4.
Once the cutting depth has been set correctly, chuck the bit
in your handheld drill.
