1. Lead In Toggle – Click this icon to include a lead in to the cut path. Clicking the icon changes its color to
orange. Including a lead in allows the pierce point and start of the cut to occur a selected distance off of
the cut path. The length of this lead in (if included) will be the value defined in the box above (4). The
direction of this lead in is defined by the work and drop settings for the cut (6.7.18). By default it is in the
positive Z direction.
2. Lead Out Toggle – Click this icon to include a lead out from the cut path. Clicking the icon changes its
color to orange. Including a lead out instructs the machine to move the torch away from the cut path a
selected distance after the cut is complete. The length of this lead out (if included) will be the value
defined in the box above (7). The direction of this lead out is defined by the work and drop settings of the
cut (6.7.18). By default it is in the positive Z direction.
