I would expect that to work as it is. Try setting it to "Circular Passes" instead.

 

On the other hand, for a part such as this, I'd likely use 2D Contour > Wrapped, but that would also necessitate a model split and some voodoo.

Sadly circular leaves an even layer and only finish a little portion.

But thanks for the Fast answer @seth.madore  !!
