Installing my motor to tripod

Post by Solar Seeker 52 »

Hey guys,

I am installing my tracker motor to my tripod. It all seems straight forward but I am not sure on the spring attachment. It seems to be running into the drive gear. Am I installing it right? The directions are a little vague.

Not familiar with that mount at all. Are there any instructions you can find online?
