I haven't seen a maximum weight quoted, it will take most 1m dishes, but there are some heavy ones around, particularly the composite dishes and I certainly wouldn't put something like a 1.2m channel master on the motor. :) If it is a steel or aluminium dish, you should be OK, the less exposed the location is, the better it will be. :)

Thanks again rolfw.
The case is that it thought to mount this system: Televés antenna 1M and Motor Moteck SG 2100A, but the weight of the disc is of 12Kg approx, is an antenna of great quality in steel, but it seems to me something heavy for this type of motors and I do not know if to look for an antenna something but light.If somebody that way has information on the subject, or has a similar system or a type of antenna that goes or with these motors or similars and that simultaneously is resistant, since alive in a zone can recommend me in which invier to us they are enough rainy and the wind is strong, for that reason I need a good antenna, would thank for it. Thank you very much

12kg is pretty high, my Moteck struggled a bit on the extreme west and east to move it, my dish is approx the same weight as yours.

Bought a HH120 Stab instead which i like much better, better quality, real steel, much better clamp design bla bla bla...

Only good things with Moteck was 1. Faster 2. The button underneath to move it manually 3. Cheap to buy if you like that.

Bad things with Moteck compared to Stab was 1. Noisy 2. Typical cheap Chinese quality, everything inside almost plastics, clamps made of cheap steel, sheer off easily. 3. Lousy clamp design, really designed for small 60cm dishes or something on a 38mm pole. no good support against larger poles like a 60mm pole.
