I have the Celestron 90 AZ. However even after loosening the Altitude handle and RA knob, the mount does not spin as smooth as I would like. Tried to loosed the 10mm allen bolt at bottom but it will not budge Wanted to pry off the Dec caps to loosen the bolt to free up Dec, but have not got that far. Anyhow, do you have any advice on this? For now I been spinning the Dec and RA axis to free up the glue like grease inside which seemed to help. Cheers Don

How the heck are your new thumb screws loosening!!? When you align the reticle ten give the thumb screw a good snug. Its a metal ring that the screws tighten against. Are 4 wheeling to your site with the mount in the back of the vehicle? I can not see once tightened how they can come loose. Don
