Hi Valery,
   Are you running a licensed version of Mach3 ? ..... or, are you in DEMO mode ?
Threading is disabled in DEMO mode.

Hi Russ
Licensed! When i am starting a cycle there is a sound like it begins to work but stops on it!(

Are you getting a valid INDEX pulse/RPM reading from the spindle sensor ?

Spindle has manual control. Engines located only on x and z axis!

What wizard are you using?
You may want to have a look at Threading on The Lathe write up which can be found in Member's Doc's.
Post your xml file.

All you need to do is add G94 in your first line of code for example "G18 G40 G49 G90 G94 G50 G80".
and G93 at the end before M30 line.
