    Question What does this all mean in Lathe header?

    "(LTOOL T4000 4000 S12 O0. I0. A90 C0. H1. D.125 N1)
    (LTOOL T0707 0700 S12 O0. I0. A118 C0. H1.375 D.125 N1)
    (HCYL S3 X0 Y0 Z-1.5 D.51 L1.5)"

    Thats from a file created in ver 23. When created new code for the same geometry in ver 25 (diff feeds/speeds/depths) the above items did not show up in the Ver25 header...

    How to do I translate the header info above?

    That header is the info on you tools and stock etc. for the Predator Editor. It is not needed to actually run the part, just to "Backplot" it in the Predator Editor.
