Kerf Indicator (Fig. 9)

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 (inner) side of the saw blade, which makes the slot or "kerf" cut by the moving blade fall to the right of the indicator. The ribs on the front of the DW368 and DW369 shoe are at 1/4" (6.35 mm) spacing. The notches on the front of the shoe are at 1/2" (13 mm) intervals.
