Bucks Drive Tune Up for LX200 8,10,12 GPS/R: £43.90

Tune-up kit further increases the precision of your drive

If your 7in, 8in, 10in or 12in Meade LX200GPS,LX200R was manufactured after August 2005 it already has precision brass transfer gears in the drive train, and you are already getting almost 50% of the benefit that older GPS scopes with molded plastic transfer gears get when upgrading to Buck's precision Gears. This tune-up kit further increases the precision of your drives through a series of adjustments that Meade's assembly line did not take the time to optimize or simply cannot make. No one step will take your scope all the way to 1 or 2 arc-second tracking performance, but this tune-up is the largest single mechanical step that you can take in this direction.

Installation of this kit will:

1) improve the drive precision in both RA and DEC drives, reducing or eliminating transfer gear backlash.

2) correct other misaligned drive components, improving drive precision and eliminating the chance of incurring drive damage due to this misalignment.

3) eliminate the tendency of the gears to loosen on their axle, due to use of a larger securing bolt capable of much higher locking torque.
