Also included is a bracket slidably secured to the support bar and a rod extending outwardly from the bracket, the rod further comprising first end and second ends. Further included is a magnetic disc secured to the second end of the rod, the magnetic disc for contact with a surface of the cutting knives to identify a common inset distance for each of the cutting knives relative to the guide fence.
