Simon,

What you have described is NOT the 1/4-20 bolts! The ones you adjusted determin the tension between the worm and ring gear. The 1/4-20s set the depth of the fit and snugness. The 1/4-20s are on the ends of the worm ...hex bolts. They need to be quite tight and tightened while you press up on the worm block.

As for the East/West side thing....having a camera that mirrors the image will cause the setting to be reversed. Best thing is just to try one way and if it doesn't work, reverse it!

Peter

PS you can exchange the worms and there is nothing that needs to be changed re index angles, etc.

EDIT: I wrote this in haste last night. Sorry if it sounds abrupt! I'm just not sure you have identified the 1/4-20 bolts.
