So I just got a new sawstop contractor saw, and i cant seem to get perfect 45 degree cuts. I made a jig for picture frames that cuts at perfect 45 degree cuts but when i tilt the blade as if to cut the angles for a box, the joints don’t line up. I made a cross cut sled just for this but the blade angle needs to be at 45. All i do is i turn the hand-wheel untill it stops turning because sawstop claims that everything is aligned and so far, everything is. Do I need one of those digital blade angle readers? Also, when i feel like ive hit the 45 degree stop, With a little more effort the hand wheel will turn another half turn. Is there something wrong with the angle stop?

Thanks in advance!
