• Semi-Automatic, FOREMAN Pocket Hole Machine
• When your production needs have outpaced a manual jig, look to the Foreman Pocket Machine to get the job handled.
• This semi-automatic machine creates the same round-sided hole as the Kreg Jig in a fraction of the time.
• 1/2” to 1-1/2” material capacity, material positioning stops, “hands-free” clamping, and quick drill bit changes.
• The FOREMAN’s automatic clamping provides a distinct speed advantage over the competition.
• Simply pulling the lever of the machine automatically throws the clamping cylinder and starts the drill motor.
• Once the drilling cycle is complete, the lever returns to the home position.
• In addition, the design of the FOREMAN minimizes machine noise as the quiet, pneumatic drill motor runs only during the drilling stroke.
• Reliable, One-step Drilling Operation
• he FOREMAN drills the pocket hole with a 3/8” diameter step bit in one smooth operation.
•The bit is supported the entire way to the workpiece by a hardened steel drill guide that ensures tear-out free holes and consistent hole placement whether the material is oak, maple, hickory, MDF, melamine or veneered plywoods.
• Unlike the routed style of pocket hole, the flat step of the drill bit ensures that the bottom of the pocket hole is flat so the screw head will seat flush in the base of the pocket.
• Handles up to 1-1/2” Thick Material
• The FOREMAN adjusts to accommodate material from 1/2” to 1-1/2” thick.
• This allows use of pocket hole technology in a wider range of applications, from 1/2” thick drawer boxes and 3/4” face frames up to 1-1/2” materials common in light framing and decks.
• Fast, semi-automatic operation; automatic “hands-free” clamping, electric or pneumatic drill motor with lever operated drill stroke.
• Reliable, one-step drilling operation; drills flat-bottom, round-sided pocket hole that can be plugged.
• Adjustability to handle 1/2” through 1-1/2” thick material.
• Stable work surface with easily adjustable “swing-stop” material positioning guides.
• Hinged-top that allows easy access to drill bit and motor.
• Available with 3/4hp pneumatic motor
• Pneumatic Motor: 90-120 psi recommended minimum compressor cap. of 5.3 cfm @ 90 psi
