    Citizen Prep page, increasing diameter value

    I have a straddle knuler that sits well below my turning tools on the change. I need to make the dia on the prep page larger then the 2.0 value the machine currently allows. Anyone knows how to change this parameter or work around this issue? I know the gang will come up higher, since it has to for tools 11-14 on the dogleg.

    Use a G50U- shift once your tool is called up in the program. This will allow you to exceed the 2.0 that your machine is limited to. Just don't do a Position Point with your stock hanging out of the GB or you will crash.

    there is a value you can change to let you use more than 2.00 in the prep page
    i am not at work now but will try and find the procedure to let you do this ( i have done it on a a20 vi and a20 vii) if this will help you
