In particular never try yo mess with the secondary offset, it is factory set and critical, as it is mounted directly onto the rear of the corrector. This is one reason that after market focuser upgrades usually fail (unless the Moonlight and its special adaptor is used). Leave it alone.

Was hoping you would comment Glenn -
I dont think the manual even mentions the secondary dot - some people use a cheshire and try to align the cheshire cross hairs with the secondary dot, but it sounds like that is a bad idea!
