Re: oops, forgot mount left on all night/day
thank you both for the thoughtful replies I have a 1 yr old Gemini 2, and although I tend to adjust the clutches rather snug I guess the worm gear didnt get damaged - as you say I have not detected

Re: oops, forgot mount left on all night/day
High Ron its just etiquette to sign your name...so we know who we are replying to. I assume its a Gemini 1 system? If so you can set Ra limits to stop this happening. Although yes I've had a Ra clash

Re: oops, forgot mount left on all night/day
Scary as that sounds, you should be ok. Your slippable RA clutch should have prevented serious damage from the slow motion collision. If you are using a Gemini unit, I'd suggest you use the nice

Re: DEC axis a bit stiff on G-11

I did read that post. I measured the gap and it seems pretty good. I'll just leave it and see if it gets any worse. Greg

Re: DEC axis a bit stiff on G-11

Re: DEC axis a bit stiff on G-11
