My HEQ5 is a newer model with the big nut and thread
I’ll find out tomorrow when I’m back if it will work
Thanks for the info

Come to think of it, the counterweight bar is kind a short on the HEQ5 for a 13.5 kg visual rating ( 9 kg astrophotography rating )

I’ve seen guys with 3 x 5kg counterweights on these mounts , mine only requires 2 x counterweights but I need just another 30 to 40mm of shaft to be comfortable with my balancing
