Feather Touch focuser issue

Hi all,

I have just received my newly purchased Feather Touch focuser. Everyone around the world advised that a FT focuser should be buttery smooth however my one is the opposite. It’s like I can feel the teeth of the gears when I focus. This vibration will be significant under high power observation.

Also, the worst part is that when I turn the focusing knob slightly clockwise and let go, the focusing knob will then turn back anti-clockwisely. I just took a short video.

Do you have similar problems with your FT focuser?

Thanks
Tom
