STEP 2 - Prepare wood and

drill the pocket holes.
Prepare your wood by squaring the pieces to be joined
on all edges. Place the drill bit into your drill and tighten
securely. Place one workpiece to be joined onto the base
of the Kreg Jig K3 as shown in Fig. 8A. Adjust the
®
clamping pressure of the clamp by turning the clamping
pad to firmly hold the workpiece into the jig. Next,
place the first 1-1/2" of the drill bit into any one of the
three drill guides making sure that the tip does not come
in contact with the workpiece. Bring the drill bit up to full
speed and slowly plunge the drill bit into the drill guide
until the depth collar reaches the top of the guide as
shown in Fig. 8B. Remove drill bit and drill the second hole
in an adjacent drill guide. Once drilling is complete,
unclamp and remove workpiece from jig, gently tapping
the workpiece to remove any remaining wood chips from
the holes you have just created.

STEP 3 - Drive screws to secure the joint.
At this time, choose the correct screw length for your application. If you are
joining 3/4" material to 3/4" material, a 1-1/4" length screw is suggested. Add glue
to the joint line if desired. If you are joining the two pieces in a flat plane, such as
a frame, position the large pad of the Kreg Premium Face Clamp over the joint line
and clamp with firm pressure to hold them perfectly flush as shown in figure 8C.

Place the self-tapping screws down into the pocket hole and drive with a cord-
less drill until tight. Your joint should be tight, flush and extremely strong. If you
encounter any problems, consult our FAQ section that begins on page 32.
