Celestron Nexstar Evolution mount, Zwo EAF

[JohnJONeill]

Hi all

I have the above rig using an 8 inch SCT. It’s on a Celestron wedge. My problem is that EAF and Diagonal is slewing into the mount when either aligning or manually trying to look at certain points in the sky. I personally believe it’s a design fault due to how long the focus adapter protrudes from the back of the OTA. I have tried positioning the OTA further up the rail but it still does not clear. I think this particular combination is a no goer with this particular rig. I’m asking all knowledgeable members for advice. I feel that either the wedge is the problem or getting a Heave duty equatorial mount may be the only solution 

thanks

I position my 8" SCT on the very end of the bar and can slew anywhere without anything catching the mount.

If you've already tried it in this position then a photograph of your set-up might help us help you.

Do you use a wedge? Will post an image of the problem
