Correct tool ?

Hi All

Does anyone happen to know what is the correct tool to remove the focusing knob from a WO FLT110 scope so I can fit an electronic focuser to it ? I sent an email to WO but haven't had a reply

I hope someone knows ... it doesn't seem to be allen key

Thanks in advance

Mine has normal allen keys on the knobs. I just tried it and there are two sizes. A larger one for the large knobs and a smaller size on the small knob.

it is if you look underneath there should be a hole in the focusser housing not the knob, at least that it what it is like on the 132mm maybe the 110 is different but it would still be an allen key maybe metric not imp.
