Position your Workpiece
There are two different methods for aligning your Kreg Jig with your workpiece:
■ For a workpiece narrower than 1-1/4" wide it is recommended to place
each pocket hole 3/8" from the edge, if possible. To do this, mark 3/8" from
each edge as the center of the pocket hole and align one of the numbered
pocket-hole drill guides (number 1, 2, or 3) and drill the rst pocket hole.
Then, re-position to the second mark and repeat the drilling process.
■ For a workpiece between 1-1/4" to 2-1/4", use the board centering mark A
and drilling pocket-holes 1 and 2.
■ For a workpiece between 2-1/4" and 3-1/2", use board centering mark B
and drilling pocket-holes 1, 2, and 3.
■ For wider workpieces such as a drawer box side, it is recommended
that the pocket-holes be spaced at 3/4" center-to-center spacing. For
workpieces such as panels, it is recommended that the pocket-hole
spacing be 1/2" to 1-1/4" from the edge and then every 4" to 6".
