Good luck.

Thanks Alex
Cable management is my next issue.

I'm not worried about vibrations etc I mount it on a backyard pier and image from the garage, the asiar is a wonderful little thing.
After I took it apart I found the worm drive in RA was too tight and was binding slightly, Also the amount of crud from the crap grease skywatcher used was unbelievable.
Now it is all cleaned, regreased, belt modded and put back together. If only the weather would play nice...
