1. Mark a "center line" about 3"
long on each piece on the two
sections being joined. In this
case, it is a quarter turn fitting
and a section of straight rail.
2. Be sure to align the jig with the
"center line" by looking through
the windows that are part of the
jig. Once lined up perfectly using
your hand, press the jig firmly
into the end cut. It should fit flush
against the end.
Note: The jig can also be used with an easement. Mark the center line and press firmly into end. Holding
the end with one hand, align the flap, bending it to fit the easement. Align the holes through the windows in jig.
Once lined up, the flap can be released and hole can be drilled. The "positioning pins" will help hold it in proper
position to drill.
After all holes have been drilled, install the ZipBolt
™
using the directions provided in each package.
4. It is necessary to flip the jig during
the process. The 1/4" hole is most
commonly drilled into the fitting to
accept the lag portion of the bolt.
The 3/8" hole is usually drilled on
the side where railbolt tightening
takes place.
3. Using a pencil, mark the spot
where the 1" hole on the bottom
of rail will be drilled. IMPORTANT!
Drill the 1" hole first before you
drill the 3/8" hole. If not, it is
possible that the bit will wobble
and create an imperfect hole, and
the 1" ZipBolt gear head will not
fit properly.
5mm Hex... Install the
threaded shaft into the

deep well socket.
