Major Diameter Choose the tool range with the largest diameter, depending on the initial grooving diameter required in the application. Remark: On integral shank tools the given range refers to the holder capacity. Tool Adjustment - Prior to machining, check and adjust the following tool positions.
Check the cutting edge height at center line, machine in light turning down to center and check for burr.
