Heq5 parts?
Hi all,
I'm wondering if it's possible to order spare parts for the Skywatcher Heq5 Pro?
What I'm after is the circular nut which screws onto the Ra axis, and what the polar scope screws into.
When trying to remove the nut, it cross-threaded and jammed itself onto the shaft, and in the process was damaged beyond repair. I've attached a picture showing which part it is, and the damage to the nut itself.
So if it's possible to order in a new nut that would be great news. Or even if anyone has an old mount laying around that you don't mind butchering up for spare parts...
I've emailed all the major retailers as well as Tasco, but in true Aussie style I'm yet to hear anything back.
Obviously it's put the breaks on astronomy for me, and at this point in time I just can't afford a replacement mount.
Cheers,
Chris
