If H is programmed in the G89.2 block, an initial finish pass that leaves a
finish allowance is made around the sides of the pocket. This typically
would be done when it is desirable to clean out the corners in an irregular
pocket before actually removing the finish allowance.
If H is not programmed in the G89.2 block, a finish pass is made around
the sides of the pocket that removes all the finish allowance that was left
during a G89.1 roughing cycle.
