Re: Quarter Hitch somewhat rough altitude movement
|
I’d leave it ALONE! The issue is with the mechanical ?“wearing” of the “hard” anodised surfaces. When using the slo-mo controls this sense of “roughness” is unnoticeable. ? You are likely to DAMAGE the contact surfaces by making them out of round. Then the slo-mo controls may not produce smooth, clean vibration-free and backlash-free movement. ?( and nothing you do after that will restore that functionality ).? Forget about this and just use the mount as is. On Thu, Mar 2, 2023 at 11:05 AM Mark Manner <mark.manner@...> wrote: Hi, I have a new to me quarter hitch mount. It is very nice, super smooth in the azimuth, and smooth in altitude with the slow motion. However, it is a bit rough when hand pushing in altitude. I notice the engagement surface and metal cylinder that pushes on it seems slightly rough.? If I wanted to very gently polish this surface to smooth it, would that be ok to do? And if so, any suggestions for what to use to do it? |
