Selecting 2 Axis Mode on 3 Axis Systems
To run a program in 2 axis mode, disengage the quill assembly
before pressing the GO key.
A prompt will appear indicating that the quill is disengaged.
If this is intentional, press GO and the program will run in 2 axis
mode.
To program a specific step to run in 2 axis mode:
Select POSITION for the Z operation type (drill steps).
For pockets, clear the Z begin depth field.
When the step is run, the Z axis servo motor will be turned off to
allow manual movement.
Follow all manual Z motion prompts. See "Tool Table" on
