Operation

Intended Use
The dowel jig is used to drill cantered holes in sizes 6, 8, 19, 11 and 12 mm for wooden dowels in the edge of a board or similar component with a width of 10 to 51 mm. The jig center’s itself automatically when it is put on.
Operation
Four holes are made in the black middle part of the dowel jig. There are two threaded holes for inserting drill bushings and two cylinder holes with 11 to 12 mm diameter. The drill bushings with an inner diameter of 6, 8 or 10 mm can be screwed into the threaded holes. Two bushings can be used to drill holes next to each other.
Prepare the dowel jig by inserting the appropriate drill bushings, if necessary, and fix the dowel jig at the desired location on the edge of the component to be drilled by tightening the clamping screw. The dowel jig centres itself automatically. Then drill the holes to the desired depth. Be careful not to tilt the drill. Tilting the drill can break it and lead to serious injuries!
