on the toe gauge. The black line on the top edge of the stand points to a toe value engraved

Each graduated mark on the toe gauge indicates a 1° toe value. You should be able to set toe
with a resolution of 0.5°

value on the toe gauge. The black line on the top edge of the stand points to a toe value
engraved in the toe gauge.
3. Repeat for other rear wheel.
Toe Gauge Values
Each graduated mark on the toe gauge indicates a 1° toe value. You should be able to set toe
