Changing Datum to make a toolpath.

Hello

 

I am a machinist new to CAD design.

 

I am receiving files from my customers in IGES mainly.

 

I am opening them in Surfcam but having a problem where Z axis is located.

 

I can transform and move Z axis where I want using new view but after I make a toolpath (Z rough) in 5 axis the tool is still back plotting on the old axis.

 

Can anybody tell me what i'm doing wrong?

 

Thank you
