Default How do you adjust the cutter bit on Aloris Tool Holders

How is the degree above centerline adjusted on Aloris type quick
change tool holders? Do you just adjust the toolholder and then the
toolbit is say... 5 degress above centerline but is still
perpendicular to the ways?I am asking because I am getting ready to
buy one after everyones suggestions and on the lantern type you set
the 5 degrees above centerline for mild steel by adjusting the tool
holder in the post with the rocker. This puts the tool at an angle to
the ways. Does it make a difference as long it is the proper amount of
degrees above center line for the material being cut whether it is
perpendicular or at an angle? It seems that perpendicular would be
much more beneficial. Thanks for any help. -Steve
