motorized EQM-35 PRO version will do all movements automatically or by push
button on the Synscan controller keypad, using its motors. The only manual operations
will be done before the starting procedure, for balancing. After that, all moves will be
made by motor. Therefore, you must make sure the clutches are well tightened.
2.3.4 Pointing at an object (fig 21)
Pointing at an object, for example to the South, can often be achieved with the
optical tube positioned on either side of the mount. When there is a choice of sides,
particularly when there could be a long observing period, the East side should be
chosen in the Northern Hemisphere because tracking in R.A. will move it away from
the mount's legs.
