and have a turning lathe

I don't  provide help / support for the Turn module of LazyCam and would strongly suggest you do not use it.
Use LazyTurn instead as that was made to replace LazyCam Turn.

BTW, There is a manual for both in Member's Doc's.

Arcs in the XZ plane use i and k. You can try replacing the j's with k's, but I don't know if it will work properly.

What LC module are you using?
You don't use the plasma or mill module for the lathe. ???
