If the fingers fit into both holders, it just means that they would have to open more for the CT holder. As far as the different height from the gage line, that would mean altering the parameter that tells the Z axis where to go for a tool change.
Well I pulled the tool changer apart today and the fingers are symmetric therefore inverting them will not help my situation. Anyway the fingers do fit the CAT40 holders so I am assuming a change in the parameters for the Z position is the best way to go.

Does any one know off hand what and were the parameter is to change the Z Position? I am looking in the manual that came with the machine but it seems there are a few pages either missing or out of order
