Good morning,
I just received my tth-4 for a cnc lathe and I wanted to know how to start with tools number one, step number one is it the part with reference?
if anyone has a how to do it i'm a taker.
and also for a boring bar how do we do it?
thank you very much and sorry for my bad english.

I bought the lathe TT-4 for my lathe as well. Spend many hours trying to get it working reliably and finally gave up. Interested to see if you have better luck with it.

thank you

hi Keith,
il already see video.
i'm ok to setup manual tools.
and video with tt-4 you start tools after tools one, how to setup tool one with tt-4 ? the order i need to start.
thank you.

using tt-4 is just like manual measure.. same procedure.

use tt to set ref, then go measure the tools same, same

normaly i start whit part, touch z and set my z 0 after i select my x take slim cut mesure and set my x XX but no option for TT for x or z.
if i go to offset page and select tool one in x and select mesure x and select TT the TT start and mesure the size is not correct it's supose show 18.965 but it's show 16.65, i mesure with micrometer 18.965 and i put this number in config, i'm confuse,i start where part ou offset ? to have a good tools one.
ps: tt for lathe, good idee to have option to mesure tt probe as part and only touch Z when you load part.

Good Morning,

I have attached a new documentation for setting your Z ref on the lathe using a TT-4 or TT-2 tool touch-off.
Any feedback on our document is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
