The table can be tilted to any angle from 0° to 45° to the right, to allow for any type of bevel (or angle) cutting. Refer
to the table tilt angle indicator to set the angle of the table to the desired position.
You will now be able to accurately return the table to the 90º position automatically without further adjustments and
scale reading for any angle other than 0 will also be accurate.
