Cutting the Bolt Recesses
When the joint has been tested, proceed as
follows to cut the recess for panel butt
connectors on the underside of the worktop.
The same cutter and guide bush are retained
and used with the integral bolt recess slots in
the jig to produce the recesses for the panel
butt connectors. The bolt recess position can
be gauged approximately 150mm from the
edge of the postform edge, or where access
is possible with kitchen units. Mark with
pencil both positions on the underside of the
worktop.
Insert the location bushes into the bolt recess
holes as shown.
■
The template may need to be inverted
when cutting some bolt recesses.
■
Securely clamp jig to worktop.
■
The bolt recesses should be
approximately 22mm deep although
this will depend upon the thickness
of worktop.
■
Once one bolt recess is cut move jig
over to the remaining pencil lines and
repeat.
■
Repeat the procedure for the male joint.
