axis to abort the homing procedure.<br />
Problem: During cold temperature operation, the mount emits an audible “vibration”<br />
sound while slewing.<br />
A resonance between the worm and gear may occur at colder operating temperatures, which<br />
is the cause of the sound. To eliminate this behavior, remove the right ascension wormblock<br />
cover and carefully place two to three drops (no more) of 3-in-1 household oil on the<br />
worm-gear interface. Also see the section “Cold Temperature Operation” on page 61 for<br />
additional cold temperature operation advice.
