180 is correct. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME! I do krazy stuff like this for a living, I'm a professional!
Sorry this scared me, I have worked around machines for over 50 years and I have seen some bad scenes because of a split second of inattention.
When you get to the point that the sound of a machine does not chill you slightly then you have reached the point that an accident is not far away.
A machine will rip or cut anything you put in its path, they have no feelings and no soul.
