BEFORE BEGINNING

Identify and verify that you have all the parts listed. Read the

instructions at least once, familiarizing yourself with the parts before

beginning. You’ll need a #3 Phillips screwdriver for assembly.

The majority of the parts have the hardware pre-attached and

just need to be attached to the Ultra Track. You may need to loosen

the hardware to install the parts, or reattach the hardware if it came

loose during shipping. Replacement Sub-Fences (4556F) are available

from Woodhaven, or you can make your own out of 3/4" material.

The Portable Box Joint Jig is designed to be used on work

that is clamped in a stationary position. It’s perfect for work that

is too heavy or cumbersome to pass over a stationary cutter on a

table saw or router table. The jig will cut box joints 1/2" to 1-9/16"

wide a minimum of 1/2" deep in stock a maximum of 2" thick.

For cutting, you'll need a 1/2" collet router, a 3/4" diameter

bushing and a 1/2" diameter bit. Spiral upcut bits are excellent

for cutting solid woods. Select a bit with the shortest possible

cut length. You'll also need a 6" bar clamp (for the first and last

cuts on the work) and a workbench/vise to hold the work.

Stop & Sub-Fence Assembly:

These parts get installed in the T-slots on the face of the 12"

Ultra Track (4412). The Sub-Fence (4556F) is a two piece set.

Both pieces are rectangular in shape with one of the pieces having

a rectangular cutout. With the bottom edge of the 12" Ultra Track

(4412) resting on a flat surface, install the rectangular Sub-Fence

(without the cutout) on the Track with the oval nuts in the upper and

lower T-slots of the track. Position the end of the Sub-Fence even

with the right end of the track and loosely tighten the screws. This

Sub-Fence can be rotated 180º so the opposite end can be used.

The Aluminum Stops (4556S) consists of two aluminum angle

components & hdw.: Stationary Stop - angle with a slot and a hole,

and an Adjustable Stop - angle with a notch and a hole. Install the

Stop assembly (4556S - loosen screws) on the track by inserting the

nuts, long portion of nuts facing away from each other, in the upper

T-slot of the track. Slide the Stops to the right, against the end of the

rectangular Sub-Fence, and loosely tighten both screws.

Install the remaining MDF Sub-Fence (4556F with cut

out) flush with the left end of the track and tighten the screws.

There will be about a 1/8" gap between the two Sub-fences.
