The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your QUIKJIG
Joinery System) to replace safety rules. Always remember that a careless fraction of a second
is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
• For your own safety, read this instruction manual entirely before operating the QUIKJIG
Pocket Hole Joinery System. Learning the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System's
application, limitations, and specific hazards will greatly minimize the possibility of
accidents and injury.
• Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets,
or other jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip protective footwear is
recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. Air vents may cover
moving parts and should also be avoided.
• Do not use the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System in a dangerous environment. The
use of power tools in damp or wet locations or in rain can cause shock or electrocution.
• Keep your work area well-lit to prevent tripping or placing arms, hands and fingers in
danger.
• Before using the machine, check for any damaged parts. Check for alignment of moving
parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other conditions that may affect
its operation. A guard or any other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced with PORTER-CABLE or factory authorized replacement parts. Damaged parts
can cause further damage to the machine and/or injury.
Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
•
• Keep children away. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance from work area. Your
shop is a potentially dangerous environment.
• Make workshop childproof with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
The unauthorized start-up of a machine by a child or visitor may result in injury.
• Reduce the risk of unintentional starting. Make sure that the switch on your drill is in the
"off" position before connecting to the power sources. In the event of a power failure,
move the switch to the "off" position. An accidental start-up can cause injury. Do not
touch the plug's metal prongs when unplugging or plugging in the cord.
• Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from spindle before turning tool on. Tools, scrap pieces,
and other debris can be thrown at high speed, causing injury.
Use the right machine. Don't force a machine or an attachment to do a job for which it
•
was not designed. Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.
Use recommended accessories. The use of accessories and attachments not
•
recommended by PORTER-CABLE may cause damage to the machine or injury to the
user.
• Do not overreach while operating the tool. Maintain a balanced working stance at all
times. When necessary, use only properly positioned, safe platforms and scaffolding.
WORK SAFE.
• Turn the drill "off", and disconnect the drill from the power source before installing or
removing accessories, changing bits, adjusting or changing set-ups. When making
repairs, be sure to keep the start switch in the "off" position. An accidental start-up can
cause injury.

Pocket Hole Joinery System when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in injury.
• ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES (ANSI Z87.1) and (CAN/CSA Z94.3). Everyday eyeglasses
are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS
WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3);
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection;
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
DRILL SAFETY RULES
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
• Read and understand the drill's instruction manual before operating the QUIKJIG Pocket
Hole Joinery System.
• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting
tools may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.
Maintain all drills and drill bits to be used in the jig in good working condition. Keep tools
•
sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Poorly maintained tools and machines can further damage the tool
or machine and/or cause injury.

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. It is recommended to use rubber
•
gloves. This will enable better control of the tool.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the operating action
of this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide
extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use.
• Use the proper extension cord. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of
power and overheating. See the extension cord chart in your drill's owner manual for the
correct size depending on the cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
QUIKJIG POCKET HOLE JOINERY SYSTEM SAFETY RULES
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
• Turn the drill off, remove the drill from the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System and
disconnect the drill from the power source before installing and removing accessories,
before adjusting or changing set-ups or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can
cause injury.
• Handle drill bits by the smooth shaft only. The drill bit flutes are extremely sharp.
• D o not lock the drill on during drilling.
• Always use the side handle supplied with the tool, if supplied. Keep a firm grip on the
tool at all times. Do not attempt to operate the drill without holding it with both hands.
Operating this tool with one hand will result in loss of control. Breaking through or
encountering hard materials may be hazardous as well.
• Be sure the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System is clamped or screwed securely to a
sturdy workbench or table before use.
• B e sure the workpiece is free of nails and staples.
• Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vise to hold long workpieces when practical. Loss
of control of a workpiece can cause injury.
Only use the included bit and drill bit collar or a proper PORTER-CABLE replacement bit
•
or collar sold for use with the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System.
To reduce the risk of tool or workpiece damage:
NOTICE
• Verify the collar on your drill bit is calibrated properly according to instructions and be sure
it is tightened fully onto the bit's shaft.
• Be sure your drill is at full speed before a hole is drilled.
• Be sure the jig's moving parts do not bind up on wood chips or other obstacles.
• Only power drills should be used to drill holes. Do not use a router or other similar tool.
• The length of the workpiece should be at least as tall as the drill guide bushings.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint.
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products.
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA).
Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and
water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of
harmful chemicals.
Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory damage or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and
body.
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning
label. Accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury. Accessory ratings must
always be above tool speed as shown on tool nameplate.
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source
before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making repairs. An
accidental start-up can cause injury.
560 QUIKJIG POCKET HOLE JOINERY SYSTEM
Using your standard power drill, the PORTER-CABLE 560 QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery
System makes precise pocket holes to join wood for many common woodworking projects.
The QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System joins various thicknesses of wood, from 1/2" to
1-1/2" thick. A screw selector guide on the side of the jig tells what screw length to use based
on the workpiece thickness.
NOTE: This jig assumes you are joining two pieces of wood that are the same thickness.

B. Drill collar stop plate
C. Drive bit storage
D. Rotating clamp handle
E. Repeat lever handle
F. Screw length indicator
G. Bushing adjustment knob
H. Base

WOOD PREPARATION
The QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System is made to drill holes into wood that is square. The
automatic positioning features of the jig will be affected if the wood is uneven. Also, be sure
TM
the wood is free of knots, nails, burls or other imperfections which could affect your finished
piece or damage your drill.
DRILL BIT COLLAR SETUP (FIG. 1, 2)
NOTICE To avoid tool or workpiece damage, use only replacement bits and collars sold
by PORTER-CABLE for use with the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System.
The collar on the drill bit is pre-set at the factory. We recommend, however, going through
these steps to make sure the bit is calibrated properly.
1. Place drill bit (A) into the adjustment channel (O) Figure 2 with the stepped edge of the bit
(P) mated into the back lip (Q) of the channel.
2. Loosen set screw (R) and push collar down on lip (S).
3. Tighten set screw using the included hex wrench (L) Figure 1.
NOTE: This adjustment needs to be done before using the jig for the first time, and periodically
over the life of the product. We recommend recalibrating the drill bit after 1500 holes drilled.
NOTE: This adjustment channel (O) Figure 2 can also be used as bit storage when the bit is
not in use.
NOTE: When using replacement bits, be sure to calibrate them to your jig before the first use.
SECURING THE JIG (FIG. 3, 4)
To avoid injury or damage to the tool, be sure the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole
Joinery System is clamped securely to a sturdy workbench or table before use.
Before using the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System, find a space on a sturdy workbench or
table that allows room to place your workpieces on the jig. Before securing the jig, make sure
the repeat lever handle (E) has room to swing down and lock in place.
The jig can be secured in two ways:
USING CLAMPS: The jig can be secured to your work bench by clamping it down
using standard woodworking project clamps or C-clamps, as shown in Figure 3.
FASTENING JIG TO THE BENCH: The jig also has four holes (T) Figure 4 in the base
so it can be attached with screws (not included) to a workbench.
NOTE: Figures 3 and 4 show the standard setup. For drilling pocket holes in extremely long
boards, refer to Alternate Setup: The Flatback Position for directions on an alternate way
to mount the jig.
DUST COLLECTION (FIG. 5, 6)
If using a vacuum for dust collection, firmly push the vacuum attachment assembly (U) Figure
5 into the back dust chute (V) and secure a standard vacuum hose Figure 6 to the port.
NOTE: If a shop vacuum is not attached, the vacuum attachment assembly doubles as a
removable tray to catch chips.
NOTE: Be sure to empty this tray often. Dust and chip build-up can affect the automatic
depth-setting function of the drill and cause problems with hole precision. Also, be sure to
dump chips out periodically that might gather elsewhere in the jig's housing. To do this, turn
the jig upside down and shake them out, or use compressed air and blow out the dust and
wood.
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, ALWAYS wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses
while using compressed air.
NOTE: If using the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System in the flatback position, you must
remove dust tray. Dust collection can't be used in the flatback position. Refer to Alternate
Setup: The Flatback Position.
PLACING BIT IN DRILL (FIG. 7)
To avoid personal injury, handle included drill bit only by the smooth shaft.
The drill bit flutes are extremely sharp.
Use only the included bit or a proper PORTER-CABLE replacement bit sold
for use with the QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System.
Insert the included drill bit into your standard power drill (W) and tighten the chuck.
CLAMPING THE WOOD
NOTE: The QUIKJIG Pocket Hole Joinery System can handle workpiece thicknesses from
1/2" to 1-1/2". Be sure the workpiece is square on all sides. See later in the manual for some
guidance on how to plan and execute some basic joints.
