I never found that to be much of a problem after the first few nights use when I worked out what tension was required to keep it working nicely all night. I have seen it mentioned elsewhere that if it is set right the axis will probably move if you bump it. I tended to go a little tighter than that but not a lot.

edit: The only warranty information I can find regards the Orion version is one year, I have had it almost four years.
