Hi there,
I had this problem with my EQ6 setup with a newtonian which I solved with an extension tube that lifted the mount up sufficiently for it to clear the legs. Depending on how tall or short you are this could be a solution.
The eq6 also occassionally tends to meridian flip as you described when asked to move only a samll distancefrom its previous position. I havn't any ideas on this I'm sorry to say.
cheers
