JIG ASSEMBLY, MOUNTING, AND USING THE CLAMPS
Chapter 1D4R Pro User Guide
1-7 Insert the finger assembly support brackets. Note: The
right and left support brackets are NOT interchangeable.
Ensure the raised lug 2 faces outwards when the bracket is
installed. For clarity, the set line
1
is drawn in red. The actual
lines are black.
1-8 Place the finger assembly on your bench with the guidefinger
screws
➀
on top and the pointed ends of the guidefingers away
from you. Fit the scales onto the finger assembly, placing the
H
HB TAILS scale
➁
to the right at both ends. Do not tighten
the scale set screws
➂
yet. Note: The
1
⁄4 " square half-blind pin bar
is supposed to be shorter than the finger bar. It is not inteneded
to fit in the scales at both ends.

the support brackets. Set the bracket index line at

the

. Tighten

1-10 Loosen the thumbscrews and make sure the finger assembly
slides on and off the support brackets smoothly, in both the tail
and pin modes. Move the outermost guidefinger at each end of the
finger assembly outward to touch the scales, and tighten. If fingers
do not slide easily, see note on page 7. This finger acts as an end
support for the router and is not generally used as a guide.
1-11 You will operate the cam-action speed-clamps every time
you use the jig, so get used to the feel of the clamps first. Use
some square ended boards for practice. Make sure the end of the
board is touching the underside of the guidefingers. Then slide
the board over against the side stop.
