My first post. Help would be appreciated.
I'm doing a G86 (bore and stop,retract) on a Fanuc 18i MB5 control. I need to turn spindle counter clockwise. Have M4 in tool call. Bore first hole fine, stops and moves to next position , then starts spindle back clockwise. Anybody know what I need to change.
Thanks

You need another M4 before you do the next hole.The machines default setting is M3 so it automatically start up with M3 after the first hole is made .
