Just a short update on the above. I have greased the motor and finally found some time to put it back on. I have to report that it is working absolutely fine. I am not sure why it did not work in the first place. However my suspicion is that with increased load on the motor since I had...

Is an off-load test good enough? I wouldn't know how I could test it on load without re-attaching it to the dish though. But I appreciate your comment, I don't wish to spend time mounting it again, only for it to stop again.

I've managed to open the Stab HH90 motor's case. And lo and behold it now seems to be working. Also it doesn't seem that the gears are too much worn down (see pictures). I've had the motor for four years, and I am surprised that its condition looks quite decent. In fact I think that I will...

My Stab HH90 has given up on me. I can hear the motor working, but the shaft does not turn at all. I thought at having a look inside to see what is wrong, but the plastic cover won't budge. It seems to be sealed shut even after removing all four screws. Any ideas how to receive the cover...

Because the receiver that drives the motor is mostly on 13degrees... that gives the possibility to the other receiver to get 13 and 19 sats. I agree, although it would not be a natural fit, with some tweaking I might just be able to turn around the bracket... I'll give it a go.

Indeed you are correct. If I position the motor on 19 degrees, I get 13 on the offset lnb. I completely overlooked the reflection property of the dish. Thanks a lot, because I thought I was going mad! But there is always a logical explanation! :) I suppose that I would need to change the...

About three years ago I had a two LNBs system, one on 13degrees the other on 19degrees with an offset bracket. Then I installed a motorised system and retained just one LNB and removed the offset bracket. Recently I bought a new receiver and changed the LNB to a dual LNB one, so that I could...
