ROUTING JIGS for GIGANT®, RICON® and DUO-System

Installation

Steps:

1. Cut the mortise by means of a → 2 Flute Straight Router Bit 13/32″ to be combined with —> Router Bushing 1″ OD and the MULTI F Routing Jigs. *Note; please pay particular attention when choosing a MULTI F Routing Jigs. The size of the Routing Jig will depend on the size of the connectors. Optionally, use the → Router Base Plate Adapter to hold the Router Bushing 1″ OD.
2. Use the MULTI F Routing Jig to perfectly align and mortise either the end-grain or face 13 mm deep. Mortise width is preset via the Routing Jiga and mortise length depends on the size connector. Please download Instruction Manual for a particular connector size. See above or under main tab Resources → Instruction Manuals
3. Set the one DUO-System connector plate into the mortise, using it as a jig to predrill holes.
4. Attach one DUO-System plate with the screws provided
5. Lay the second plate over the first and screw in the pan head screws until they are snug against the second plate. (this will set the correct depth of the pan head screws and ensure a tight fit during final installation)
6. Install second DUO-System plate with the screws provided
7. Attach workpiece using a rubber mallet

Tips:

1. The joint is always tight, as the connector snaps together in a dovetail-like manner. Still, the fasteners allow the natural shrinking and swelling of the joints and are adjustable if needed.
