When I first bought my Vixen Atlux - about 4 years ago now had a way too loose DEC setting. I ended up doing the open heart surgery myself on the mount - took about 4 goes to nail it - becuase for me it was basically is the worm close enough to the main gear wheel and is the motor close enough to the gear wheel attaching to the worm - they were the only two variables to play with.
My worm gear was too far from the main DEC gear and the motor was way too far from the worm gear wheel. It wasn't actually hard to manipulate these to be al lot closer and get great results - nerve wracking the first time - but not technically really hard - if you do it in small steps.
The Atlux only needed an Allen key and a philips screw driver to adjust, with your EQ mount - I'm a babe in the woods - but I wonder if the wonderful folk at BinTel might help?
