In this type of installation, when the angle guideline is vertical (or if bubble is visible in level), the SDWC screw is at the optimal angle for top plate to rafter/truss connections.

In this type of installation, when the centerline guide is vertical, the screw is at the optimal 90° angle for vertical connections into an offset rafter/truss assembly.

In this type of installation, when the centerline guide points to the middle of the rafter/truss and the angle guideline is vertical (or if the bubble is visible in the level), the SDWC Truss screw is at the optimal compound angle.
