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.

Mine will too, but it hits a hump as the blade bottoms out. Unhooking the
blade makes slip rolling smooth and easy.
