You get to ring the newbie bell that signals that you forgot to give a full description of what the machine is in question. I saved you by performing a web search to find out it is a side delivery hay rake. For one by adjusting that angle you are changing the angle the rake teeth are setting in relation to the ground. One process this affects is the ability of the rake to pick up the crop.
