Default Grizzly G4011 30" Sheet Metal Machine

You have to unhook the blade when using the slip roll.
Remove the two bolts that connect the arms to the blade/die and pop
the bushings out of the blade so that the arms are free.
Then the handle will swing a full 360.

The Grizzly manual doesn't mention that,

and the handle on my Central Machinery 30" 3-in-1 rotates freely with
the shear/brake bar connected. I've used a Jet and Triok 3-in-1
machines that rotate all the way around like mine.

I did remove the spring-loaded hold-down and C-clamp the work to the
table if necessary, which isn't often with the blade straightness and
clearance adjusted to cut paper, and sheet metal of less than maximum
thickness.
