Help please with Peterson / Bucks upgrades

[BlackWidow]

I purchased my LX200GPS 10" second hand. It has the Peterson Sticker on it so I know it has the Bucks gear kit installed. I also believe that it has the Ezy Clutch and Focus upgrades. I don't have the instructions so that I know how to adjust the gears and make sure they have been setup correctly.

The instructions would also allow me to confirm what has been done. Peterson Engineering want to charge me near the cost of a Gear kit just to supply me the instructions (nice of them)

If anyone has the instructions to these mods and would like to help me with a copy, it would be GREATLY appreciated indeed.

Happy to pay for postage costs, or could be sent PDF.. :thanx:

Hi Mardy,
Try Bintel, either in Sydney or Melbourne. They stock Peterson parts and maybe able to provide the instructions that you need.
If you have no luck there (unlikely) try the "Cloudy Nights" forum.
It is a U.S based site, there maybe some members that can help.

Good Luck, John. :)

I think I have the details on bucks gears some where. Buck was ex navy and we used to correspond regularly before he died. He loved playing with HV generators.
