● Mount the half-blind/sliding dovetail template (40) (fi g. H1).
Make sure that the fi ngers side faces the operator.
● Place the workpiece to be used as the tails part in the vertical
position (fi g. G2). Make sure that the outside of the workpiece faces
the base of the attachment.
● Centre the tails part relative to the template fi nger spacing as
required (fi g. G2). See "Marking and clamping the workpieces".
● Clamp the workpiece in position.
● Place the spacer piece (46) created earlier against the left side of the
tails part (fi g. I). Slide the left offset guide to the right until it is fl ush
against the spacer piece. Fasten the offset guide (9).
● Clamp the piece of scrap material in position so that it is fl ush to the
tails part.
● Align the template using the "HALF-BLIND" alignment line (44)
(fi g. H1 & H3).
● Fit dovetail cutter type A (15) and guide bush type A (17) on the
router using a guide bush adaptor plate as required (fi g. A2).
● Adjust the cutter depth using the "HALF-BLIND" depth guide (31)
(fi g. D2).
● Make a fi rst cut working from right to left across the face of the
vertical workpiece to reduce chipping.
● Rout the tails. Remove the workpiece and the scrap piece when
fi nished.
Routing the pins
● Place the workpiece to be used as the pins part in the horizontal
position, fl ush against the left offset guide (fi g. G1). Make sure that
the outside of the workpiece faces the base of the attachment.
● Mount the half-blind/sliding dovetail template (40) (fi g. H1).
Make sure that the fi ngers side faces the operator.
● Clamp the workpiece in position.
● Align the template with the inside edge of the rebate on the pins part
using the "HALF-BLIND" alignment line (44) (fi g. H1 & H3).
● Rout the pins working from left to right. Remove the workpiece when
fi nished.
● Check the joint.
● If adjustment is required, proceed as for half-blind dovetails.
Routing through dovetails (fi g. A2, D2, E1, G & H)
The through dovetail has a look that is visually appealing, especially in
boxes and chests. Both tails and pins are cut in the vertical position,
in the order given.
Routing the tails
● Place a piece of scrap material of the same thickness as the
workpiece intended for the pins part in the horizontal position (fi g. G1).
● Mount the through dovetail/box joint template (41) (fi g. H1).
Make sure that the tails side (47) faces the operator.
● Place the workpiece to be used as the tails part in the vertical
position (fi g. G2).
● Adjust the left offset guide (9) to centre the pins part relative to the
template fi nger spacing as required (fi g. G2). See "Marking and
clamping the workpieces".
● Lock the left offset guide in position using the Allen key supplied (36).
● Clamp the workpiece in position.
● Clamp the piece of scrap material in position fl ush against the
workpiece to ensure that the template cannot defl ect while the joint is
being routed.
● Align the template using the "TAILS/BOX" alignment line (43)
(fi g. H1 & H3).
● Fit dovetail cutter type A (15) and guide bush type A (17) on the
router using a guide bush adaptor plate as required (fi g. A2).
● Adjust the cutter depth using the "TAILS" depth guide (30) (fi g. D2).
● Rout the tails. Remove the workpiece when fi nished.
Routing the pins
● Place a piece of scrap material of the same thickness as the
workpiece intended for the tails part in the horizontal position (fi g. G1).
● Rotate the template (41) through 180° so that the pins side (48)
faces the operator.
● Clamp the workpiece in the vertical position (fi g. G2). Make sure that
the workpiece is fl ush against the left offset guide.
● Clamp the piece of scrap material in position fl ush against the
workpiece to ensure that the template cannot defl ect while the joint is
being routed.
● Align the template using the "PINS" alignment line (43) (fi g. H1 & H3).
● Fit straight cutter type B (16) and guide bush type B (18) on the
router using a guide bush adaptor plate as required (fi g. A2).
● Adjust the cutter depth using the "PINS" depth guide (31) (fi g. D2).
● Rout the pins. Remove the workpiece when fi nished.
● Check the joint.
● If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
- To make a tighter joint, move the template towards the operator.
- To make a looser joint, move the template away from the operator.
Routing box joints (fi g. A2, D2, E3, G, H & J)
Box joints have straight protrusions that interlock and must be held
together by glue. The large amount of gluing surface provides the
strength necessary for large projects.
The two joint sections are both cut in the vertical position and in
separate operations, the fi rst using the left offset guide and the second
the right offset guide
For box joints, a 12.7 mm (1/2") straight cutter (not supplied) is required.
Routing the fi rst joint section
● Place a piece of scrap material of the same thickness as the
workpiece intended for the second joint section in the horizontal
position (fi g. G1).
● Mount the through dovetail/box joint template (41) (fi g. H1).
Make sure that the fi ngers side (47) faces the operator.
● Place the fi rst workpiece in the vertical position (fi g. G2). Make sure
that the outside of the workpiece faces the base of the attachment.
● Adjust the left offset guide (9) to centre the pins part relative to the
template fi nger spacing as required (fi g. G2). See "Marking and
clamping the workpieces".
● Lock the left offset guide in position using the Allen key supplied (36).
● Clamp the workpiece in position.
● Clamp the piece of scrap material in position fl ush against the
workpiece to ensure that the template cannot defl ect while the joint is
being routed.
● Align the template using the "TAILS/BOX" alignment line (43)
(fi g. H1 & H3).
● Fit a 12.7 mm (1/2") straight cutter and guide bush type A (17) on the
router using a guide bush adaptor plate as required (fi g. A2).
● Adjust the cutter depth using the "TAILS" depth guide (30) (fi g. D2).
● Rout the tails with the guide bush against the left side of the fi ngers
of the template, both in and out. Applying light pressure towards the
left will help to prevent loose joints.
● Remove the workpiece when fi nished.
Routing the second joint section
● Place a piece of scrap material of the same thickness as the fi rst
workpiece in the horizontal position (fi g. G1).
● Mount the template (41). Make sure that the fi ngers side (47) faces
the operator.
● Loosen the right offset guide (9) using the T-handle Allen key (36).
Slide the guide to the far right position (fi g. J).
● Position the fi rst joint section in the vertical position on the right side
of the base. Make sure that the tails protrude through the fi ngers of
the template (fi g. J).
