Matt, the tipping angle is typically 45 degrees. The stops likely are 0, 22.5, 30, and 45. I may be wrong, but that is what comes to mind based on my saw. Of course I may be recalling incorrectly, but I am sure the final stop to the left and right are 45 degrees. I tried labeling mine, but wasn't all that helpful. I even tried labeling the measuring strip on my table saw, but that was pointless. I could not get the labeling gun to make marks small enough and it just made more sense to measure and line everything up with the fence based on the measuring device. Wow, did that make sense?
