Cutting Female Joints

1. Select the appropriate template slot on the jig for your desired female joint.
2. Insert the router with the correct guide bush and cutter (typically 1/2 inch or 12.7mm diameter).
3. Set the router depth according to the worktop thickness, ensuring multiple shallow passes rather than one deep cut.
4. Carefully guide the router along the template, maintaining constant pressure against the jig's edge.

Cutting Male Joints

1. Position the jig for the male joint cut, utilizing the integrated male cut-line guides. These guides account for the 8.65mm cutter-to-bush offset, ensuring accuracy.
2. Follow the same routing procedure as for female joints, making multiple passes.

Inset System Usage

The built-in inset system allows for fast 3mm and 10mm insets. These are crucial for reducing tool wear and improving the aesthetic of square-edge or bullnose countertops.

1. Place the appropriate clear inset gauge into the designated slot on the jig.
2. Route the inset depth before making the main joint cut.
