3d parallel help needed

Is there a way to switch the tool path from machining horizontally along a 3d slope to vertically along the slope? i am using 3d parallel and i am trying to cut some thin fins but the tool path is sending it horizontally up the slope so very inefficient. hope i explained this clear enough. any help is greatly appreciated as it will cut my run time back quire a bit.

Pass Direction. This will change directions for you. It does take some trial and error to get it going the direction you want, but it works well. In the below image, leaving it at zero allowed it to machine along the length (desired). setting it to 90 forced it up and down. Undesired.
