Jeff, If you put a bit of upward effort onto the bottom of the counterweights
with one hand, whilst rotating the altitude bolt with the other, it will make adjustment much easier, and hugely extend the life of the threads on the bolt, and inside the mount. A smear of grease on the thread is of course a good idea.I did this for eight yrs with my HEQ5 and never had a problem. A better system would be good, but it is a budget level mount that
actually does a damn good job for the price.
