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.
