rotate pivot point

Hi there,

How can I rotate my object pivot point?

to rotate my pivot point the maya help says:
select the rotate-tool and press the insert button...
but in my case that doesn´t work; I just can rotate the whole object itself.

anybody out there willing to help a maya-beginner from beer loving Germany??
