Kerf Indicator
The front of the saw shoe has a kerf indicator for vertical and bevel
cutting. This indicator enables you to guide the saw along cutting
lines penciled on the material being cut. The indicator lines up
with the left (outer) side of the saw blade, which makes the slot or
"kerr" cut by the moving blade fall to the right of the indicator. Guide
along the penciled cutting line so that the kerf falls into the waste
or surplus material.
