Customer reviews

Great EQ mount! :)

Review by C. H. on 23.08.2020 02:46:10

( 5 / 5 )

Everything is metal/steel, solid and sturdy. Feels tough and decent quality.
No instructions, no warranty or any notes was included in the package.
But nonetheless, it's easy to figure out and assemble.

ADVICE:
I noticed some of the turning gears, I can feel friction and have spotted metal dust and thread shavings. Clean it up with magnet or vacuum, add some appropriate lubrication. I add lithium grease to the polar align gear threads and weight bar threads.
Before adding the weights, turn all the axis points a 2-3 times fully, to 'break in' and lubricate the gear teeth. This method improved the turning and feels smoother.

This is my first equatorial mount. I was trying to find one good value for it's good weight capabilities.

I received the mount in good time.
I'm pretty pleased with it!
Highly recommend! :)
