You don't say what problem you're having. Getting an alarm? Which one?

Try the following:

G01G99Z0.F.005
X1.191,R.03( <------------- MANUAL DOESN'T SHOW , IN EXAMPLES)

G-Code Problem on my Fanuc Oi Hardinge Lathe

Any answers based on experience with Haas are maybe not going to be entirely useful.

Silly me. Saw it posted in Haas Mills, thought it might be for a Haas. Now that I see the double G71's, I'm totally ashamed of answering the question at all. The answer should still work, however. I'll try to be more careful next time.
