Using the Kreg Jig
3
Position the Stop Collar
Place the stop-collar setting block (L) on the jig base in
front of the drill guide. Slide the step bit (I) into one of the
drill guide bushings and drop the pilot tip into the hole in the
block that corresponds to the length of the screw you'll be
using. With the step bit shoulder resting on the block, slide
the stop collar (J) onto the drive-end of the bit so it rests on
the drill guide. Tighten the stop collar set screw with the hex
wrench (K).
Use the chart below as a guide for positioning the drill-bit
stop collar when using the standard drill guide and bit as
well as the optional Micro Pocket Drill Guide and bit and
Kreg Jig
HD drill guide and bit. Always make a test joint
®
with stock the same thickness as your finished workpieces
before proceeding with your project.

Adjust the Clamp Assembly
Press down on the ratchet release (F) and slide the clamp
assembly (D) all the way back. Position the workpiece
against the drill guide. Move the toggle handle (C) to the
full-down (clamped) position. Slide the clamp assembly
forward until the pad contacts the workpiece. (You'll hear
the adjustment mechanism clicking.)
Holding the clamp assembly against the workpiece, raise
the toggle handle until you hear the adjustment mechanism
click two times. Move the toggle handle to the clamped
position. Check to make sure the workpiece is securely
held in place. If needed, raise the toggle handle one more
click. The clamp assembly is now positioned so the internal
spring applies sufficient pressure to secure the workpiece
when the toggle handle is in the full-down position.
