I'm getting ready to run a part with buttress threads but I'm not sure how to check what the infeed angle is set to on my lathe. I believe it's in a parameter? Machine is a Mori Seiki SL20 with Fanuc 0T. Can it be set in the canned cycle statement? Which threading cycle is appropriate? Thanks! Thread is 6.75"-4, by the way. It's pretty coarse; I'm wondering if I'll need to rough with another tool so I'm not blowing through threading inserts.
 
It's set in the canned cycle. I would just leave it at 0 and go straight in. G92 is pretty easy to use and you can make each cut different.
