α0  Angle of rotation  Degrees 
Z1 
 
Spigot depth (abs) or depth relative to Z0 or X0 (inc) - (only for ∇ and ∇∇∇)  mm 
DZ  Maximum depth infeed - (only for ∇ and ∇∇∇)  mm 
UXY  Plane finishing allowance for the length (L) and width (W) of the rectangular spigot. 
Smaller rectangular spigot dimensions are obtained by calling the cycle again and 
programming it with a lower finishing allowance. - (only for ∇ and ∇∇∇)

UZ  Depth finishing allowance (tool axis) - (only for ∇ and ∇∇∇)  mm 
W1  Width of blank spigot (important for determining approach position) - (only for ∇ and 
∇∇∇) 
mm 
L1  Length of blank spigot (important for determining approach position) - (only for ∇ and 
∇∇∇) 
mm 
FS  Chamfer width for chamfering - (for chamfering only)  mm 
ZFS 
 
Insertion depth of tool tip (abs or inc) - (for chamfering only)  mm 
* Unit of feedrate as programmed before the cycle call
