It allows you to machine a spline, slot or keyway in a tapered part. When you tilt the dividing head it allows the center to be in alignment with the head so that the surface of the taper is then parallel to the table surface allowing a cut to be made parallel to the tapered surface. This is if I understand the offset description, ie. tilted uphill or downhill. I edited this to hopefully be a little easier to understand. I knew what I was trying to say, just didn't say it very well earlier.hew:
