HD Drill Bit, following
®
these three simple steps.

If you are using a Kreg Face Clamp, slide the
large clamp pad into the T-slot recess on the
back of the Drill Guide. Then install the Stop
Block by sliding the tapered keys on the Stop
Block into the mating slots in the bottom of the
Drill Guide. This captures the face clamp pad so
the clamp stays in place on the Kreg Jig
you move it from one location to another. When
using an F-style clamp or C-clamp, simply install
the Stop Block. These clamps do not interlock
with the Kreg Jig
3
Slide the Kreg Jig
Guide. With the Stop Collar resting on the
Guide, there should be 1/16" (the thickness of
a nickel) between the Stop Block and the tip of
the drill bit. Fine-tune the position of the Stop
Collar, if necessary.
Note: Stopping the bit before it drills all the way
through the workpiece eliminates splinters that have to
4-3/4"
be removed before joining it to a mating part. With
both parts clamped together, the self-tapping tip of the
Kreg Jig
of material in the fi rst piece and forms its own pilot hole
in the mating piece, drawing the joint tightly together.
