Hey Dustin, I have not had to cut that steep of an angle. If you need to cut that steep of an angle in that direction, you can reverse the thumb screw on the blade clamp. You will have to remove the jack screw that is opposite of the the thumb screw and switch there position. Shouldn't take more than a minute to do.
Before you reset the position of the screws, put on a dab of blue loctite on the jack screw so it does not move on you in the future.
