I run a MAKA BC570, and I use mastercam router 2017. I have programmed 2 dimensional routering before, and I have used the saw before, but only in 2 dimensional.
Right now I am trying to cut an end off of a beam. Please see the video below.

The time between 1:20 and 2:10 is similar to what I want to do. However, in my case imagine that the beam extended farther, and it would collide with the yellow part. I have the CNC making two separate cuts, on per side of the beam. I meant for the yellow part to be away from the stock.
In mastercam I program the tool, but I don't program the spindle's location. I do not know how to specify where the rest of the machine goes.
Is this a common problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?
