WO FLT-132 4" Focuser Maintenance

Does anyone have any information on removing/modifying this focuser to eliminate side slop in the tube?

Lateral thought - would you consider swapping out the supplied focuser for a Moonlight focuser; seems a few folk (self included) adopt this approach to get the better WO refractors to perform for imaging purposes!

I sent my original FLT132 focuser back to the plant for them to fix. It was still no good when I got it back so I bought a FeatherTouch which is superb! Highly recommended.
