Greg,
Both my EQ6-R mounts ( 2018 and 2019 versions ) have belts on Dec and Ra
The EQ6-R is belt driven and only belt driven, whereas the Skywatcher EQ6 , NEQ6 , Saxon EQ6 , Saxon NEQ6 etc etc.... are gear driven ( I wish they wouldn’t rebadge mounts )
Skywatcher AZ EQ6 and Saxon AZ EQ6 GT are belt driven
I’ve noticed in a few posts when folk mention about their EQ6 mount there’s a bit of confusion over the drive system
A lot of folk convert both old and newer EQ6 or NEQ6 mounts from gear to belt drive
