Hello members,
a question;
wants to create / build a declination on this motor using an actuator.
now I have (2) hinge / pivot points. To adjust this motor to declination, there should be a threaded rod with nuts at the bottom, which I left out for a while. How would you handle that, possibly with photos for me for the clarity.

Sorry, but that's not what I mean.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

If it is declination in the true sense then you would have to fit the actuator between the reflector and polar bearings, and best run under compression.

if you want to do a real declension you have to do it this way
the engine must not lower or raise
only the puck must move up or down
You had to attach the disc to the base of the motor bracket
then above you have to put a bracket that supports the piston to which the dish is connected
