EQ5 Skywatcher GOTO Upgrade help

[andyhulme1966]

This might be the silly question of the month but....

I've just fitted the SkyWatcher EQ5-UPGRADE Goto and I was wondering has anyone else fitted one as well ?

If so did you fit the Dec motor on the right hand side (east side) by rotating the mount in Dec axis as the instructions ask or on the left side (west) ? The reason I ask is if its fitted as per instructions the locking screws for the mounting plate will be on the right with the small silver locking screw ontop not the bottom as before. Surely this way the scope is less secure ?? As the weight of the scope will not be pressing down onto the small locking screw ? I've seen both ways in pics on the net, does it really matter ? Any help would be much appreciated.
