3) Ensure that the comb is sat flat & level on top of the

board, see fig 05. Use the wider part of the set gauge to

ensure that the marked square line is central to the

dovetail comb slot, see fig 06. Use the comb adjuster

knobs to align & adjust, see fig 07-08.

4) The cutter depth is optional & will always be the same

for both the dovetail slot & the opposing tenon. For the

best aesthetic & strength results set the cutter depth to

approx ⅔ the thickness of the material- NB max cutter

depth 19mm, see fig 09.

5) Attach the magnetic extraction at the right hand end

of the support bar, see fig 10 or on a larger width board

attach the right hand side stop to the right hand end of

the jig to support the magnetic extraction, see fig 11-12.

Start the cut at the right hand side of the jig moving the

router from right to left. DO NOT LIFT THE ROUTER AT

ANY TIME DURING A CUT.
