Is there a "Multipass" feature for Multi-Axis turning?

I am turning a piece in my multi-axis machine (Legacy Maverick 3x5). I know this CNC is unique in the way it handles lathe turning. The piece I am making is an organic twisted shaft like handle with multiple groves on it. I have already make on prototype and it looks ok, but I hope to improve the manufacturing process. Currently I am adding multiple Multi-Axis/Rotary/Line pases to the piece in order to to some clearing of the excess material. I do this because I need to start with a thick stock. I am not sure if is possible to do multipasses in one operation with this tool?. Does anybody have experience with this tool in wood? 

I am including here the model I am making. I am a bit new so I am not sure what to include.

Thanks for your help.
