FAQs

What materials can I use this jig with?

The DeWalt Draining Groove Jig is designed for use with solid timber, compact laminate, composite, and chipboard.

Which routers are compatible?

It's compatible with all DeWalt routers and other 1/2" collet capacity plunge routers that use a 1/2" diameter router bit cutter and a 30mm guide bush.

How do I ensure a clean cut?

Use a sharp router bit, feed the router at a consistent rate, and make sure the jig is securely clamped to the material.

What is the FlexLock® Anti-Bow support?

It's a feature that helps maintain consistent, precise cuts, even when working with challenging materials or during extended use.

How do I maintain the jig?

Clean the jig with a damp cloth after each use and store it in a dry place. Inspect it regularly for wear and tear.

What is the purpose of the 0.5-degree fall?

The 0.5-degree fall minimizes jig deflection and enhances router stability, saving setup time.

Troubleshooting

Inconsistent cut depth.

Check and adjust the router's depth setting. Ensure the jig is securely clamped to the material.

Router wobbling during use.

Ensure the router is properly seated in the jig. Check for any obstructions or debris that may be causing instability.

Tear-out on the material edge.

Use a sharp router bit. Reduce the feed rate, and consider making multiple passes.
