Hi there
Perhaps the original has been written for inch measurement units.
With millimeters it is a very short move at very slow speed.
"G31 Z-40 F200" would be more appropriate for millimeters. The tool has enough space to move down to touch the plate provided it is positioned before the start at less than 40 mm above the plate.

Code "G31 Z-0.5 F5" 'probing move, can set the feed rate here as well as how far to move
