Safety Precautions

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

• WARNING Before using a power tool with this product, read, and follow the tool manufacturer’s instructions and safety precautions to reduce the risk of serious injury from hazards such as fire, electric shock, or rotating drill bit.
• WARNING Drilling, sawing, sanding or machining wood products can expose you to wood dust, a substance known to the State of California to cause cancer. Avoid inhaling wood dust or use a dust mask or other safeguards for personal protection. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/wood.
• WARNING Always wear personal protective equipment certified as such, including safety glasses, hearing protection, and respiratory protection. When using a power tool, always follow the manufacturer’s protection equipment requirements.
  • Drill bits are sharp and can become hot during use. Always use caution when handling drill bits to avoid the chance of serious injury.
  • Dress properly, and do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Failure to do so can result in clothing, hair, or jewellery becoming caught in moving parts and serious injury.
  • Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of your tools to replace safe work practices. A moment of carelessness is sufficient to cause severe injury.
  • Avoid awkward hand positions where a sudden slip could cause contact with the rotating bit.
  • Always hold the jig securely against the workpiece while drilling holes.
• WARNING Do not operate this tool or any machinery while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medications.

   • If ccentring set the bottom of the Alignment Stop (C) at half of the height of the drawer (e.g., 3 in. (7.6 cm)) and tighten the Thumb Screw (G).
   • Line up the notch on the centre of the Alignment Stop (C) with the centre mark on the top of the drawer.
   • Hold the jig firmly against the face of the drawer and drill the hole using the Fixed Center Drill Guide (F).
   • Install the knob and repeat the process for each drawer.
2. Install a Handle on a Drawer
