Default Question Table Saw Switch Placement

Hi!

I am eyeing up a really good deal on a right-tilt Steel City Cab saw.
However, I noted in the images, e.g.,

that the cabling for the switch appears to interfere somewhat with
access to the tilt adjustment wheel. Is this indeed the case? Or did
they just slap the switch on there for the pic but there is better
placement available?

It looks OK to me. I think it is just a camera angle. You can look in the
manual for some other pictures.

And I am certain that it would not be difficult to relocate the switch. This
is commonly done all the time on tables saws to install "safety switches".

And you can always give the Steel City folks a call. Maybe they can send
out a picture that shows this at a different angle.
