(1) The tool moves from the initial position, to the edge of clearance
Z, moving in rapid traverse along the Z axis.
(2) The tool moves, in rapid traverse along the X axis, to the position
X=0.
(3) The tool moves in cutting feedrate along the Z axis to the bottom
of the hole.
(4) The spindle is stopped.
(5) Spindle rotation is reversed and the tool returns to the edge of
clearance Z. in cutting feedrate
(6) The tool return to the initial position, in rapid traverse, moving
first along the X axis and then along the Z axis.
NOTE
It is necessary to set No.4002#5 to 0 for a reverse
tapping cycle.
