I want to export the program to M04 for reverse thread milling but only export the program to M03 for direct thread milling. Please help me.

Hi

 

To use the left hand cutting tool you must uncheck "Clockwise Spindle Rotation" in the tool library

Then to Maintain Climb milling in the toolpath you need to Switch the Direction to Conventional because the threadmilling toolpath doesn't recognize the M04 direction

Are you actually trying to mill a Left Handed thread? or right handed, because you have left handed selected in your toolpath
