Threaded hole in miter slot

I just bought a DeWalt Woodworker's Table Saw and both miter slots have a threaded hole in the bottom. Anybody know what those are for?

Nice saw!!!

Those are the set screws for your bevel stops at the 0-degree (left miter slot) and 45-degree (right miter slot) angles. Refer to STEP 24 in your owner's manual.
