Hello Taylor,
Are you sure you needed the wavy washer? I needed one it made balancing? things easier. I just tighten my RA just enough so it does not move easily. I've learned that it does not take very much.
It is interesting that A test concluded that the amount of tightening does not affect the performance.
Thank you Brian, for that tid bit.
HAPPY SKIES AND KEEP LOOKING UP Deric

Hi Taylor
I suggest tightening it by hand until the RA axis stops moving easily. The amount of tightening does not impact RA performance (we've recently?tested this) but you there's no need to crank it down.?

I have the GM811. When tightening before the wavy washer, the clutch wouldn't need to be very tight to actually have enough pressure for the RA to stop rotating. With the wavy-washer I have to really tighten the RA axis clutch to stop it from rotating. About
how much pressure should I be trying to rotate the RA axis to call it good? Kind of hard to quantify. I usually have one hand rotating the RA head and the other tightening the clutch.?
