I came from a CPC mount, but I did exactly this. I deforked my CPC925 to make it a C925 and put it on the Orion version of the AZEQ6. The on axis encoders are accurate enough for visual work to allow manual pointing (At the time my main justification for buying it was to use in Alt-Az mode and be able to manually point) and while the balance procedure is a bit tricky, it works well as an AP mount in EQ mode, with the encoders off.
