KendoUI line chart, How to save labels outside the chart?

I am using the KendoUI line graph. I have shortcuts on the line chart and the shortcuts are cropped on top. Is there any way to prevent this?

KendoUI Line Graph

Here is the jsFiddle project for playing with: http://jsfiddle.net/rodneyhickman/2eWYg/1/

Here is my markup:

<div style="padding:20px;" >
   <div id="divChart"></div>
</div>

Here is my script:

jQuery('#divChart').kendoChart({
seriesDefaults: {
    type: "line",
    missingValues: "interpolate"
},
legend: {
    position: "bottom"
},
tooltip: {
    visible: true,
    format: "{0}%"
},
valueAxis: {
    min: 70,
    max: 90,
    plotBands: [{
        from: 70,
        to: 75,
        color: "#f5f5f5"},
    {
        from: 80,
        to: 85,
        color: "#f5f5f5"},
    {
        from: 90,
        to: 95,
        color: "#f5f5f5"}]
},
series: [{
    type: "line",
    name: "Product 1",
    color: "#004990",
    width: 1,
    markers: {
        background: "#004990"
    },
    tooltip: {
        visible: true,
        template: "<b>Product 1</b><br/>Current Score: #= value #<br/>#= category # "
    },
    labels: {
        visible: true
    },
    data: [88.71, 88.87, 88.91, 89.39, 89.44, 89.47, 89.39, 89.38, 89.25, 88.81, 88.9, 88.84, 88.79]},
{
    type: "line",
    name: "Market Segment",
    color: "#da7633",
    width: 1,
    markers: {
        background: "#da7633"
    },
    tooltip: {
        visible: true,
        template: "<b>Market Segment</b><br/>Current Score: #= value #<br/>#= category # "
    },
    data: [75.9, 75.58, 75.54, 75.19, 74.9, 74.42, 74.51, 74.72, 74.55, 74.44, 74.15, 73.86, 73.79]}],
categoryAxis: {
    labels: {
        rotation: -45,
        step: 1,
        skip: 0
    },
    categories: ["Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec", "Jan - 2012", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr"]
}
});​

By adding margin to plotArea, it frees up space for shortcuts.

plotArea: {field: {up: 20, left: 5, right: 5, bottom: 5}},

You can customize the series to add labels under the dots - according to docs ;

notes: {
  position: "bottom"
},
