[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1079580, member: 175144"] Update Finally got the go ahead on friday and the dish is now back here. The owners have done their best to grease and oil the important bits, but many bolts have suffered in the 30 years or so this has been in the garden, plus the original company drilled through the reflector to pass the LNB/polariser cables through to the front end. The hacksaw was the second most important tool in taking everything apart, with some brake fluid to release what was sitting behind. But overall the dish face, feed arms and polarmount are in reasonable useable condition and I'll take put some cleaning fluids on the metalwork later this week. The Skyscan branded actuator is beyond help though. Thanks Wodgey for the heads up. [/QUOTE]
