Assembling your Pocket-Pro
1) If you purchased the PPJ-001 Deluxe Set, attach the molded
Jig Base to the Phenolic Plate using four machine screws
(provided). If you have the PPJ-002 Set, attach the jig to a flat
piece of plywood or your workbench. See illustrations below for
suggested dimensions. Screws should be tight enough to keep
the jig from moving on the plate, but do not overtighten and
damage your jig.
2) Assemble the molded Upper Jig to the Jig Base using the
two screws and knobs provided.
3) Attach the Toggle Clamp to the Phenolic Base Plate (PPJ-
001 only) or to the base you constructed in Step One using
four screws. Thread the shaft of the Clamp Tip into the body of
the Toggle Clamp.

POCKET-PRO JOINERY
Characteristics of Pocket-Pro Joinery
Now that your Pocket-Pro Joinery System is assembled, you are ready to wood joinery. If you have used
other pocket hole systems, you will be familiar the joint, as well as some the basics of using this jig.But,
you will find some big advantages to the Pocket-Pro. For example:
• Some jigs require that you add or remove various portions of the jig to join different stock thicknesses.
Not with the Pocket-Pro - you simply adjust the interlocking jig up or down for the full range of joints,
from 1/2” (12,7mm) to 1-5/8” (41,2mm) thick!
• Other jigs require frequent repositioning of the Depth Stop Collar for different styles of joint. Not with
the Pocket-Pro - the vast majority of adjustments allow you to leave the Stop in the same position!
• With the Pocket-Pro, you can quickly adjust the location of the pocket in relation to the end of your
workpiece to use longer screws or to leave more “meat” in the joint.
Here are just a few examples of joints you can build with your Pocket-Pro:
- Leg and Rail Joints
- Cabinets Construction
Face Frames Picture Frames
Cabinets
Leg & Rail and other
furniture jobs

Face Frame Joints:
Face Frame joints are among the most common applications
of the pocket hole joint, and they are an excellent way to
get accustomed to your Pocket-Pro. If this is your first
experience with pocket holes, this is an ideal place to start.
We’ll start with a joint in common 3/4” (19mm) stock. Be
sure to make a joint in scrap material first to be certain that
you understand the system.
1) Set the height of the jig for 3/4” (19mm) material.
The “tooth” on the upper jig marked with a black triangle
should fit into the slot marked 3/4” (19mm).
2) Insert the Step Drill Bit into one of the drill guides and
set the Depth Stop Collar so that the tip of the bit will
stop about 1/8” (3,2mm) above the Base. Remove the
bit from the jig.
3) Clamp your workpiece vertically in the jig, so the two
drill guides are centered on the stock. The threaded tip of
the Toggle Clamp should be adjusted so that the clamp
holds your workpiece firmly, but you should not need
to force the clamp closed, as extreme pressure could
damage your jig. Take some time to get familiar with the
correct clamping pressure while working with scrap.
4) Drill both holes. For best results, allow the bit to come
to full speed within the drill guide before drilling the
workpiece. Drill the hole until the Depth Stop reaches the
top of the drill guide, then keep the bit spinning while you
withdraw it from the wood.
5) Remove the stock from the jig, and position it at
right angles to the other workpiece. Use the Face Clamp
(included with PPJ-001) or your own C-Clamp or Bar
Clamp to hold the two pieces together. Place the larger
plate of the clamp against the front face of your joint -
this will keep the faces perfectly flush.
6) Drive self-tapping pocket hole screws into each hole,
using the Driver Bit and your adjustable- clutch driver.
Adjust the torque so you can drive screws without
stripping the heads. The workpieces may separate slightly
as you drive the screws, but they should pull tight as you
set the screws. If they separate by more than about 1/8”
(3,2mm), you may wish to apply greater pressure with
the clamp.

mitered or angled joints. Try other
settings for various thicknesses.

Angled and Beveled Joints
The Pocket-Pro can be used to create a wide
variety of angled and beveled joints. The unique
incremental height adjustment of the Pocket-
Pro lets you put the pocket in the best possible
position for your application. As you become
more experienced with the jig you will find many
more applications than we can possibly illustrate,
but this 45° angled joint is a good illustration of
the technique:
1) This joint connects two pieces of 3/4”
(19mm) stock, but we recommend that you
set the jig at the 1” (25,4mm) height. This
has the effect of moving the pocket farther
back from the end of the miter cut, creating a
stronger joint.
2) Drill the holes. If you are joining wide
material, you will probably need more than
two holes, so shift the stock in the jig as
needed.
3) In order to assemble the joint, it will help
to create a stop block as shown to hold the
work in position. This technique is useful in
many other pocket hole applications.
Tongue & Groove and Rabbeted Joints
The Pocket-Pro’s incremental adjustment comes
in handy for these common joints. Other pocket
hole jigs are positioned so that your screw would
cut through the tongue portion of the tongue
and groove joint. By adjusting the height of the
Pocket-Pro, however, you can control precisely
where the screw is positioned. For example,
in this illustration, we used 3/4” (19mm)
material, then showed where the screw would be
positioned at the commonly-used 3/4” (19mm)
position in the upper illustration. In the lower
drawing, we show the advantage of the 7/8”
(22,2mm) position with the Pocket-Pro.

Face Frame joints in other stock thickness
• For thinner stock, adjust your jig to the 1/2” (12,7mm) or 5/8” (15,87mm) setting, then adjust your
depth stop so the tip of the bits stops 1/8” (3,2mm) above the base.
• For thicker stock, adjust the jig to the appropriate stop. You do not need to adjust the Stop Collar,
unless your screws will not otherwise be long enough for a solid joint.
Note: Toggle clamp omitted for clarity
Screw Selection
For best results use only self tapping pocket hole screws with fillister or washer heads. We have a variety
of screws available for various applications. In general, use 1” (25,4mm) screws for 1/2” (12,7mm)
stock, 1-1/4” (31,75mm) or 1-1/2” (38,1mm) screws for 3/4” (19mm) stock, and 2-1/2” (61,5mm)
or 3” (76,2mm) screws for 1-1/2” (38,1mm) material. Coarse thread screws are best for softwoods, fine
thread for hardwood.
Maintenance
Your Pocket-Pro Jig is molded from high impact plastic. The jig and all other components of the Joining
System are designed for years of trouble free service. Keep the jig and clamps free of dust build-up,
and store them safely when not in use. Lightly oil the drill guides when they begin to seem dry. The only
other maintenance required is occasional sharpening of the Step Drill Bit. Take your bit to a qualified
sharpening service for best results.
Mitered Joints
Pocket hole joints are an ideal way to assemble picture frames
and other mitered projects.
These instructions assume you will use 3/4” (19mm) thick stock.
Adjust your Jig for thicker or thinner material.
1) Set the height of the jig and the Depth Stop Collar for 3/4”
(19mm) material.
2) Cut the miters on all workpieces.
3) Clamp your workpiece in the jig as shown at right. If the stock
is more than 2-1/2” (63,5mm) wide, you can use the two drill
guides just as you would for a face frame joint. For narrower
material, you can still drill two holes, but you will need to shift
the stock between drilling the first and second holes, so that
neither pocket will be exposed on the edge of your frame.
4) Drill both holes.
5) Clamp each joint with your Face Clamp or C-Clamp and drive
the screws.

SISTEMA DE EMPALME POCKET-PRO
Características de Pocket-Pro Joinery
Después de montado el sistema de Empalme Pocket-Pro, Ud. estará listo para entrar en nuevo mundo
de los empalmes de madera. Si ya ha utilizado herramientas de este tipo, ya conocerá muchas de las
aplicaciones que se pueden realizar y las indicaciones de base para su empleo.
Sin embargo, descubrirá que Pocket-Pro presenta algunas ventajas importantes. Por ejemplo:
• Algunos productos necesitan que se agreguen o sustituyan algunas partes del equipo para la
elaboración de los varios grosores.
No es así para Pocket-Pro, el cual permite conseguir la realización de encajes con grosor que varía
de 12,7 a 41,2mm (1/2” a 1-5/8”) mediante una simple regulación vertical de la herramienta.
• Algunos equipos necesitan frecuentes desplazamientos de la posición del anillo de ajuste de la
profundidad de los agujeros para los distintos tipos de empalmes.
No es así para Pocket-Pro, ¡con el cual la mayoría de los ajustes pueden conseguirse dejando el
anillo de profundidad en la misma posición!
• Con el Pocket-Pro es posible ajustar rápidamente la posición del equipo respecto a la extremidad de
la pieza que trabajar, haciendo posible utilizar tornillos más largos o dejando un grosor mayor en los
empalmes.
He aquí algunos tipos de empalmes que es posible realizar con el sistema Pocket-Pro:
- Empalmes de espiga
- Fabricación de pequeños muebles
Bastidores
frontales
Marcos
Pequeños
muebles
Patas y travesaños y
