In the G87 back boring cycle, the control moves the axes in this manner:
1. The tool rapids to the initial point level above the hole location.
2. After the back boring tool is positioned, the control orients the tool to
a position determined in AMP by the system installer.
The control shifts the boring tool by one of two possible methods as
described on page 26-33. The shift method is determined in AMP by
the system installer. Refer to the documentation supplied by your
system installer for additional information.
