4. Opsætning

Proper setup ensures accurate and consistent results.

4.1 Attaching the Drill Bit and Driver Bit

1. Insert the stepped Deck Jig Drill Bit into your drill chuck and tighten securely.
2. Place one of the stop collars onto the drill bit. Use the hex wrench to tighten the stop collar at the specified depth for your decking material. Refer to the jig's markings or included instructions for precise depth settings.
3. Insert the square-drive Deck Jig Driver Bit into a separate drill or impact driver. If using the same drill, you will need to switch bits between drilling and driving.
4. Place the second stop collar onto the driver bit and tighten it at the appropriate depth to ensure screws are driven flush or slightly below the surface of the pocket hole.

4.2 Using Spacer Rings

The included ¼" spacer rings are used to maintain consistent gaps between deck boards, promoting proper drainage and extending the life of your deck.

5.1 Positioning the Jig

1. Place the Kreg Deck Jig on the edge of the deck board where you intend to drill. The jig features an ergonomic grip for secure handling.

5.2 Boring og inddrivning

1. With the jig securely in place, insert the Deck Jig Drill Bit into one of the hardened-steel guides. Drill a pilot hole until the stop collar contacts the jig, indicating the correct depth.
2. Remove the drill bit and insert a Kreg deck screw into the newly drilled pocket hole.
3. Using the Deck Jig Driver Bit in your second drill/driver, drive the screw until the stop collar contacts the jig, ensuring the screw head is properly seated and concealed.
4. Repeat the process for additional screws along the deck board. The jig is suitable for use with both solid wood and composite decking materials.
