Accu-Cut: Set Screws in Track Keep Coming Loose
Hi Folks,
Just wondering if anyone has had problems with the set screws in their Accu-Cut track? I just used my newly purchased system yesterday for the first time. It takes a little getting used to, but after a while I started liking it more and more.
The only real complaint I have with the system is that the set screws used to hold the two sections of track together are constantly coming loose, to the point where they fall out when you pick up the track.
Is anybody else having this problem? I've tightened them to the extent I believe they should be done without overdoing it.
I was wondering if I should use Loctite or something similar to really fix them in place? I don't think I'll really ever need to use the track in shorter sections.
My only other small complaint is that I think Kreg really should have thrown in a small screw driver or hex key for those screws as part of the package. I'd have paid an extra buck to have that handy when I was first putting things together.
Cheers.........Dan
