There is a flat bar on the underside that goes up and down,, works good.

Ebay has a few Oregon Gaugits but they are all fixed depth, unfortunately.

A lot of stuff in this thread on Arboristsite: too much to copy over to here:

Depth Gauge Tools for Saw Chain

Proper setting of chain depth gauges (a.k.a. 'rakers', 'drags', etc.) is critical for good chain performance. People might disagree on the specific offset, but whatever they choose, it should be intentional. Thought this might be a good time to start a depth gauge tool ('depth gauge gauge'?)...

Note that this one is a single, ‘U’-shaped piece, which is different from the one in Post# 2 and #6.



More info in that thread, including instructions.
