with your gear blank fitted on the machine head,
measure the distance from the machine flange(this is the face of the taper hole where your arbor fit into)measure this distance from the flange to the gear crown.
now plus the pitch apex to crown(calculated)with the flange face to crown distance.This will be your head setting.
