I ended up doing what the others suggested and machined down one of the couplings that came with the EAF to fit the 62ED's focusing pinion. I drilled out the internal diameter with a drill and filed down down the external diameter with a hand file. It's not pretty but it now fits the scope.

However, once that was done, I found that the bracket that comes with the EAF doesn't line up with the threads on the underside of the 62ED, so I gave up haha. I ended up using a Samyang 135 for my automated travel rig. I might come back to it later though

I'm sure a more skilled metal machinist would be able to make it work. I'd be interested to hear from any others who have successfully setup the 62ED with the ZWO EAF
