I think i will have to disagree.

I see that the brass bush in the photo will have a hole to match the rod to be turned.

The whole tool will then have to be accurately set on the centreline in height of the tool and the X axis to align the bush with the rod

Then to get the correct turned diameter the bit is adjusted in the holder using a screw that is just visible at the back of the tool

Unless you have this tool and know better, that is how it looks to work.
