TS 55 kerf/rail offset

[nikev]

Hi,

I am wondering whether there is any data available the about the specified offset between the back (the aluminium part furthest from the saw blade; NOT the splinter guard side) of the saw guide rail and the edge of the kerf left by the blade. What is this offset supposed to be, assuming the saw is correctly adjusted and the cams on the guide are tight??

Thanks,

Nike

All my Festool saws are set 3mm from the aluminum edge where the splinter guard is attached.  TS--55, TSc-55, TS-75 and HKC-55.
