Assembly and Setup
1. Assemble the jig as shown in Figs. 1 - 5.
2. With the desired bit (1/2" or 3/4" in diameter) installed in
your router, position the assembled Platform (1) on your
router table so that the Miter Slot Bars (6) fit in your table’s
miter slots and the bit extends up through the oblong hole.
Fig. 6.
3. Install the appropriate indexing key (i.e., the 1/2" key (2) for
1/2" box joints and the 3/4" key (3) for 3/4" box joints). Be
sure to install the key with the flat, non-stepped edge toward
the router bit.

> To avoid risk of serious injury, unplug the router before
installing, removing or adjusting the router bit.
> To avoid risk of serious injury, never set the bit
cutting height more than 1" above the surface of
the jig Platform (1).
Make sure the Small Washers (14)
are installed correctly so that the threaded ends of the
1/4"-20 Three-Star Knobs (13) and 1/4"-20 x 1/2" Hex
Socket Head Cap Screws (18) don’t extend past the bottom
of the Sled Runners (16) and grind into the Platform (1).
Also, double-check that the Sacrificial Fences (9 and 10)
are not rubbing too much on the jig, preventing a smooth
glide. Some slight sanding may be necessary.
