I have a Baader steeltrack SCT focuser fitted to my edge 8in, which i find a great improvement but when i use a heavy 34mm 2in eye piece, the focuser tends to run on its own.

The knobs turn as the draw tube drops down, usually in an over head position.

Is there a way to adjust tension? or do i just rely on the stop screw to lock it in place?

I've checked on line but can't find an answer to this problem.  the eye piece is a weighty lump but if i had a DSLR fitted, surely it must be as heavy?
