Argo Navis installed on my 12" dob

i got my AN on friday and within 2 hours (i took my time) i had it all nicely installed and the wires nice and tidy but i noticed that the ota will hit the azimuth encoder if i go higher than around 70 degrees, even less when i put a knock stopper so it wont hit at all
i havent had a chance to check out the AN yet because of the weather but i have done an encoder/mechanical test and all seems fine so far.

i cant wait to check it out but im interested to know if anyone else has had a similar problem and im not sure what i can do to fix it other than either raise the height of the ota or lower the encoder somehow, ill post some photos if i get a chance tomorrow
