Delta 507X table saw

I'm having trouble aligning the pointer for the angled blade adjustment. When I Zero the blade the pointer is off by 5 degrees. I've tried everything but bending it into submission.

Is this common with Delta saw adjustments? Any solutions?

I own an older Delta and the pointer on mine has to be bent to set it.

Keep in mind that the pointer is just a guide and is not accurate enough for the final setting.

I knew that but, I thought it would have been close evought to not have to bend it into place. It is obvious that the pointer is useless.
I check my alignments with each project anyway.
