workpiece is not cut. (See "2. Verify the Cutting
Position and Height When the Tool Is Lowered" in
the previous section.) If the workpiece is cut, then
repeat steps 2 and 3 and set a new reference point.
* When you view the loaded workpiece edge-on from
the side, if there is any location higher than the
four corners, then move the cutting tool to that lo-
cation and redo the setting for the depth-direction
reference point.
