Whaaaahhhhh....... ![:-Axechase]( "Axe Chase :-Axechase")
While trying to find the limits during dish remount of the 24" ball screw actuator from Venture, I clearly overshot them, heard a crunching noise and prepared for the worst. The worm drive still moved but only every half turn.
Took the gearbox apart and found that the main plastic gear cog that drives the worm has broken. I've already emailed Venture to see if they have any spares but wondering if I can buy one off the shelf.
The cog is around 55mm wide on...
I broke my Venture actuator
