Fusion 360 Lathe - how to use a Rear Side Tool?

Hello,

on my small lathe, I do have a rear side tool
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyLjzj8Gads


and in fusion 360, there are normally front side tools and operations.

When I reverse under "setup" the X orientation

the toolpaths are not on the rear side (opposite to the red x arrow).

Only the view is rotated ... it changes nothing.

 

And when I change the tool orientation here to 180 degree

fusion produces an error

because the tool is rotated, but fusion still choose the front side, so holder and workpiece would collide...

 

I think I'm missing something important. I would appreciate any help

 

Best Regards
Simon
