To use it as a height gauge, simply set it at your bit height, lay the foot flat on the table and raise the bit until it touches the arm. The half-round notches let you register the gauge to the center of 1/4'' and 1/2'' shank router bits. Alternatively, you can use the ''depth'' portion to measure to the edge of the cutter, rather than the middle of the shank.
