Hand tightened is fine. you don¡¯t have to crank them down.

Also depends on the load. If it¡¯s heavier it¡¯s worth an extra confirming twist

Subject: [Losmandy_users] Mount Clutch Tensions

Tonight I will have this G11 out for the first time. I've had a few dry runs in the house just to become familiar with the working parts of the mount and Gemini 2 HC.

My question. How tight should the Dec and RA clutches be in GOTO mode and tracking? Partially or more tight? Assuming the scope is well balanced prior to using the GOTO mode of course.

Thanks
