Your New Leigh R9PLUS Dovetail Jig
for Dovetails and Box Joints
Note: There are two user guides in this book. This user guide is for
Router Table Operation. Flip the book over for Bench Operation.
The R9PLUS Dovetail Jig was designed to overcome the restrictions
of fixed width jigs. Because of its unique “step over” feature, it
is possible to rout Through Dovetails and Box Joints on boards
of ANY width!
The R9PLUS can be used as a template jig with a hand-held router
or as a router table template. In either mode, you will be able
to rout multiple sizes of perfectly fitting through dovetails and
box joints.

The heart of the R9PLUS Dovetail Jig is the beam. A typical
beam, shown below, is 30"[762mm] long. A 30"[762mm]
beam can accommodate board widths of up to 18"[457mm].
Beams can be made shorter (minimum 20"[508mm]) or
longer, in 10"[254mm] increments. Because of the template’s
unique “step over” ability, beams can be made longer to suit
any width project. The beam is equally suited to router table or
bench operation.
The following instructions will guide you through the beam
making process. Care in building the beam will ensure great
joinery every time with the R9PLUS. In addition to these
instructions, a two page drawing, complete with all dimension
information, is provided at the end of the user guide.
Important: Please use this chapter’s step-by-step instructions
in conjunction with the technical drawing on pages 38-39 of
the Appendix.

1-1 The beam assembly consists of the main beam A, the
sacrificial backer board Band the clamping surface C. We
recommend making the clamping surface and sacrificial board
from MDF, 1/2" to 3/4"[12,7 to 19mm] thick. Hardwood or
softwood may also be used.
1-3 Cut a piece of MDF 30" long and 21⁄8" wide [762mm
x 54mm]. This will be your clamping surface A. Then cut
your sacrificial boards 1
1
⁄ 2 " x 30"[38mm x 762mm]. You may
want to cut a number of extra sacrificial boards now to use as
replacements B.
1-5 This procedure is critical to the accuracy of the jig.
Before attaching the MDF boards to the beam, use each pin plate
as a drill guide. First, mark a line 41⁄2"[114mm] in from the left
end of the top of the beam and square it across A. Next, stack
the clamping surface
B
, sacrificial board
C
and beam
D
near
the edge of the workbench and clamp in place E.
1-2 Start with a straight, flat and square 30"[762mm] length
of wood, 11⁄2" x 31⁄2" x 30"[38mm x 89mm x 762mm]. Note: A
30" section of common 2 × 4 can be used if it is straight, flat and
square.
1-4 Lay out the mounting screw holes
A
and clamp holes
B
as
per the drawing on pages 38-39. Drill and countersink the screw
holes on the clamping surface. Drill the 5⁄16"[8mm] holes Cin
the sacrificial board. This piece can be reversed and flipped four
times to use up all four surfaces.
1-6 Clamp a pin plate with its wide straight side flush to the flat
bench surface Aand its side edge on the line B. Using the 2 small
holes Cin the pin plate as a drill guide, drill two
3
⁄ 32 "[2,5mm]
pilot holes 1"[25,4mm] deep. These holes will correctly position
the pin plate on the beam. Note: If you are using hardwood, redrill
these holes with a larger bit, 1/8" or 9/64", to avoid breaking screws.
Important: Please use these step-by-step instructions in conjunction with the technical drawing on pages 38-39 of the Appendix.

1-7 Use two No.8 x 1
1
⁄ 4 " [38mm] wood screws (included) to
lightly attach the first pin plate with its left edge flush to the
line on the top of the beamA. Note: The pin plate is moved up
from the drilling position (see 1-6) to align the screw slots in
the pin plate with the pre drilled holes
1-10 Pin Plate “Pin” The template has positioning holes that
allow it to sit perfectly on top of the raised pin Aof each pin
plate. The pin plate sits flat on the beam B.Note: When the
sacrifical board Cis installed, the top of the pin plate will be
level with the top of the sacrificial board.
1-9 Assemble the Latches There are three parts to each
latch assembly: the latch screw A, the nyloc nut Band the plastic
latch C. Press the nyloc nut into the hexagon opening in the top
of the plastic latch with the white nylon insert facing up. Next,
screw in the latch screw from the bottom of the latch. Do not
tighten the screw at this time.
1-12 Mount the template on the left pair of pin plates using the
7⁄16"[11mm] pin position A.
1-8 Square a second line across the beam board exactly 7"
[178mm] from the right edge of the first pin plate A. Clamp
the second pin plate
B
flat on the workbench and against the
line. Repeat the drilling and attaching procedure as before.
Repeat this procedure for each successive pin plate.
1-11 Attach the latches to the keyhole slots and turn to engage
the pin plates A. Adjust the latch screw tension so that the
latches are stiff to turn onto the plates (seen from underside of
the template).

surface to the beam through the countersunk holes. If screwing
into a hardwood beam, first drill pilot holes in the beam.
1-17 Sidestop Positioning Create layout lines as indicated
above for the sidestop
A
. Note: Be precise. Sidestop positioning
is very important.
1-14 Using the two 5⁄16"[8mm] holes as drill guides, drill
two 5⁄16"[8mm] holes through the beam. Attach the sacrificial
board at the left end with a ¼-20 machine screw and wing nut.
Then move the template to its second position and install the
second screw.
1-16 Clamp Holes Drill all
3
⁄ 4 "[19mm] clamp holes
A
square
to the beam, through the clamping surface and beam. Next,
drill two holes (as per beam drawing), 5⁄16"[8mm] diameter and
9⁄16"[14mm] deep, for the table glide B(used for router table
operation only).
1-18 Using a Brad Point or Forstner bit, counter bore a
5⁄16"[8mm] hole A, 1⁄4"[6,35mm] deep for the sidestop hub.
Then, using a 3⁄32"[2,5mm] bit, drill a pilot hole for the sidestop
mounting screw. Attach the sidestop to the beam with the
provided No.8 x 11⁄4"[30mm] round head screw B.

1-19 The template will now be used to precisely position the pin
plates. Slightly loosen all pin plate screws Ajust enough so that
the pin plates can move side to side. Position the template on the
pin plates in the 3⁄8"[9,5mm] position B. Set the sidestop to the
TD Max position C.
1-21 Gradually tighten the second pin plate screws Amaking
sure the template is not binding on the pins. Move the template
to the second position and repeat the procedure with the third
pin plate.
1-22 Optional Hold-down for Bench Use Notch out the
ends of the beam in order to clamp beam assembly to a bench
and use in hand-held router mode. ■
1-20 Clamp a square board against the sidestop and flush
under the template. Insert the shank of the No.80-8 bit into
the 5⁄16"[8mm] hole in the template. Move the template and pin
plates laterally until the shank of the bit just touches the edge of
the board. Now tighten the first pin plate.
Important: The beam may expand or contract with humidity changes. Use the
3⁄8"[9,5mm]
holes to adjust the pin plates as required.

Joint Fit Adjustment
R9PLUS ROUTER TABLE OPERATION
CHAPTER 5
The Leigh eBush
5-2 With the eBush turned to “10” Ain the base the active
“diameter” is increased, allowing less side-to-side movement,
resulting in smaller sockets and larger pins. Turning the eBush to
“0” Ballows more side-to-side router/bit movement and more
wood removal, producing larger sockets and smaller pins, and
thus a looser fit.
5-1 The Leigh eBush barrel is elliptical A, unlike plain
circular template guidebushes B. When rotated, the effective
diameter of the barrel changes, allowing fit adjustments as small
as .001"[0.025mm]. The e10 eBush is included with the R9 PLUS .
5-3 Make a small scratch line or permanent ink mark on the
router table insert at the 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock position. This
will help you steer the template along and between the guide
surfaces. All settings for the eBush will be aligned to the scratch
or ink marks. The eBush will always be set on 5 as a starting point
for dovetails and box joints.
5-4 Adjust the eBush with the pin wrench. Markings on the
eBush indicate which way to turn it for a looser or tighter fit.
Note: Normal tolerances with bits, guide bushings and router runout will generally produce poor fitting joints. Leigh
elliptical guide bushings (e7 and e10) solve this problem.

Router not listed?
If your router is not listed in this chart, you may
be able to fit a “universal baseplate” to your
router. Please contact Leigh for assistance.
Adaptor Mounting Screws
Screws are included with router.
Adaptors for Router Tables
Leigh guide bushings and eBushes are based
on the industry standard 1-3/8" 2-piece design.
Most router tables have adaptors that accept
these standard guide bushings. If your router
table does not have a suitable adaptor, please
check with the router table manufacturer.
Guide Bushings
All 8mm shank through dovetail bits listed in this
chart work with either the e7 bushing (7⁄16" OD)
supplied with your Leigh jig, or with any 7⁄16"
OD guidebush. The optional Leigh e10 bushing
or standard 5⁄8" OD guidebush is used with 1⁄2"
shank bits. No other guidebush sizes can be used
for through dovetails.
