It may be desirable to adjust the depth

shoe before tightening.

keRf INdIcAToR (fIGuRe k)
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.
Additionally, the BTE300 has 0 and 45
degree visual indicators - the corresponding
left and right sides of the window in the rip
fence slot (see item 15 in fig. k), and also
labeled 0 and 45 degree indicators just in
front of the blade kerf (see item 16 in fig. k). Note that the upper guard has been
removed from fig. k for clarity.
