We always used a 1/16th inch lead. The word 'lead' is used as in 'lead a dog'. If the saw cut exactly parallel to the log, it would always be rubbing the log. To avoid this the leading edge of the saw teeth must be set so it cuts 1/16th inch closer to the log than the back edge of the saw, as viewed from above. That way friction is reduced, the saw will not heat up & the saw will not bend & cut thick & thin lumber. The lead is sometimes built into the sawbox track holders, the front track holder being 1/16th inch closer to the sawbox than the back track holder. Then the saw guides can set set to help maintain the lead in Hickory & other stubborn woods.
