Here are images of set up,I check cables regularly for snag ups.

I use a Jaycar power supply (cost $400) it has digital display screens,shows power usage,amp draw current votage etc (very impressive looking),I run SS2K at 12.7 volts,uses less than .2 of an amp guiding and 1.43 amp when slewing.I have heard SS2K is 'Power hungry' so not sure if I should tun up votage,I am sure book says only 12.5 volts.

May b e the 'on top' guide' scope is not a good idea,and a 'side by side' arrangement is best.Yesterday I put plate on top of guide scope with 2 200 gram sinkers to weigh that end more as suggested.

Might have to send mount to Rodger Davis or Gary Mack in Melbourne for tune up,bit really cannot afford that at present-its $40 each way for postage.

Anyhow thanks for all your suggestions of a fix-Chris
