I am hoping someone here can help me. I have to use some cutter compensation in one of my programs ( the radius cutter had to be replaced, now it has a larger diameter) I have read the manual and can't seem to get it to work. Here is the first part of the program. Can someone suggest what I need to do?

I know that I need to set the offset value in the tool page GEOM (D) Which I did. I also think I need a G42 D09 to get the offset working. I have tried many different versions and still can not seem to get it to work. Any ideas?
