How to add second dovetail on Skytee (TS-Optics AZ5)?

[Marian M]

Hi friends!

 

Quick check- I bought the second dovetail for the Skytee mount, to add the second scope in parallel with the main one. In the way the mount come from TS Optics, the dovetails wouldn't have been aligned. So I have unscrewed the 3 small screws around the round foreground part. Once unscrewed completely , the extreme white round part was spinning just 10-20 degrees but had something inside blocking the movement further. I still need to rotate some other 20 degrees, to be parallel with the first one 

Any idea what shall I do, what to unscrew, where, to be able to rotate more the foreground part in the picture?

 

Thanks a lot in advance!

I've done this myself but I dont recall needing to do anything more than to take those grubs out and unscrew it. I think it's the grub screws that have ripped into the threads that you are hitting.

I have checked again and the same issue. It seems that something solid/ big is blocking completely the rotation

Are there adjusting grub screws on the other side? Perhaps if there are the remianing rotate to line them up would be possible.

Hi Stevie!

Unfortunately no other screws on the other side..

I was just looking all around but nothing

I'd suggest dropping OVL an email asking if the part can come off so you can check it, or why the rotation is limited (if indeed it is).
