3-3 Installing a Tool and Setting the Cutting-start Location
The Locations of the Origin Points
When you perform cutting using a work plate, you set three origin points: the X, Y, and Z origins. The X and Y origin
points serve as the start location for cutting. You normally align the Z origin point with the surface of the workpiece. In
any case, make the settings to match the size of the workpiece and the length of the cutter.
