Loose Motor at its nozzle

[NewBirth2010]

I have a Moteck 2100 motor. The problem is that it is loose. I slightly feel the dish moving in the air (left and right) when I hold it with my both hands.
Any ideas ? Is this behaviour normal?

Thanks M.

there should be no play are you sure its just not flexing,what made you check it?

Thanks dick b

It is not flexing. I was trying to fine tune the dish. As I said it is slightly loose. It plays a bit, I feel it. This is enough to create problems in fine tuning.

No way of tightening then? I have same motor and no slack.

[NewBirth2010]

Are you sure? Not even a slight slack?

You feel it rock solid?


Thanks.

Within reason, not checked lately as it's on the wall .

[NewBirth2010]

Within reason !

Would you say that the slack is normal?

no you should have no play.I have a couple of technomate motors and they are dead firm.these have a bolt going through the neck of the tube and if not tightened right up the tube can rock on the output shaft a lot.
