C-axis Face contour won't work with y axis

Recommended Posts

I have a haas st30y and am trying to put a radial pocket on the side of the part as pictured. It looks good on mastercam but wants to gouge into the part on the machine. I need to use the y axis to put the feature in. I tried c axis contour with y axis also tried mill countour with y axis output. Both want to gouge into the part. Any ideas of what’s going on here?

The C would work but it is too jumpy/leaves a bad surface finish. That is why I want to lock the C and use the Y to cut it.

so you can cwich change  for Y out pu on this settings
