More info
Hi all, I have tried a few things to get this working, but when it comes to the upward load with the OTA, the gears start to slip. There are no missing teeth, so the only think I can think of is the gears are moving out of alignment when under pressure.
Still wondering if anyone has any spare parts for the ETX125ec, or knows where to purchase some.
Thanks
