When I try to auto align, the telescope will not turn more than about 350 degrees. I've loosened the horizontal lock and manually moved the scope clockwise and counter clockwise and I can only get about 350 degrees of movement before it comes to a stop. This means I can neither auto align or follow objects

Can some one help me out with this problem?

Are you starting in the HOME POSITION?

Unlock, turn counterclockwise until it stops, lock it down.

Hi Bill, thanks for replying. Yes I've put the scope in the Home position. Even if it seems to have aligned properly (which it did just now), when I ask it to take the 'tour' it will eventually get to a position where it can't go any further - although it tries to!
