Woodline DadoRight Dado Jig for Router Instructions
Fitting the DadoRight™ to your clamp.
Place the DadoRight™ over the clamp and loosen the three screws
on the outside edge of the mounting assembly. Squeeze the sides of the
portion of the mounting assembly that covers the clamp and hold while
tightening the screws snugly. The DadoRight™ has small slots that allow
for precise adjustment. When properly set, the DadoRight™ should slide
smoothly along the guide without excessive play. If the DadoRight™ moves
smoothly in some places but binds in other areas, check for glue buildup or
other imperfections in the clamp.
Woodline USA recommends a 24 guide clamp for most dado
″
applications; however, longer clamps can be used. Alternatively, the system
can be used with a straight, smooth board no greater than 5/8″ thick and
2⅛″ wide and an appropriate width.

Setting up your DadoRight™
The DadoRight™ works well with virtually any router with a base
plate up to 6½ in diameter (most 2½ HP or less routers). A router can be

Using a Bushing
The DadoRight™ can be used with or without an optional 1

guide
bushing. A standard 1 diameter guide bushing fits tightly into the center

hole of the pivot plate and the DadoRight™ can easily be removed or
use elsewhere. Contact Woodline USA or visit woodline.com if you need

bushing, the router must be mounted to the pivot plate.
Option 1: Remove the pivot plate from the jig by
removing the three retaining screws. Place the router on top of the
pivot plate and note the position of the router handles and other
fittings. The router should be turned until the handles and fittings will
not interfere with the set plate knobs when the router base is pivoted
during use. The opening in the pivot plate should be centered on the
router bit opening. Carefully mark the location of router mounting
holes. Drill the mounting holes and countersink them so the screw
heads are just below the bottom surface of the pivot plate. Reinstall
the pivot plate into the jig and tighten all the screws. The pivot screw
is secured with a special nylon lock nut. Tighten the screw firmly, then
back off ¾ turn to allow smooth movement of the pivot plate.
The pivot plate is marked and
drilled, then countersunk to fit a
router.
