    TL-1 IPS With LH Tooling

    I have set up gang tooling on our new TL1 but can NOT figure out how to get a LH mounted tool to cut the correct direction using the IPS. I have a parting tool mounted upside down on the far side of the part. I have my tool type set to 'cutoff' and have tried every possible tip direction number. The tool always moves away from the part instead of cutting through it. What am I missing?

    Thanks in advance!!

    Try to enable mirroring for the x axis (G101 x0). This command must be added independently. Don't forget to turn off at the end of the work tool (G100 x).
