Hello AB,

I installed a ZWO EAF on my Evolux 62ED but the focuser is jiggling inside the tube when the lock screws are removed.   Does this happen on most scope or is mine just as bad a scope as I now think it is ?   Won't this induce tilt and screw up my stars ?

Is there a solution or do I have to kiss the EAF goodbye until a get a better scope ?

I guess googling first instead of panicking first would have been the right thing to do    Problem fixed, at least until I check collimation but I am leaving it here in case other people ever have the same issue.

The solution was in the 3rd post in this thread on CN.

One of the screws was very loose, I tightened it and it's not wobbling anymore.  I just hope it's straight because the other screw is stripped and no hex key will grab so I have only 1 screw for adjustment.
