Maxview crank-up dish problem (1 Viewer)

[rosalan]

The crank-up winder keeps dropping down, making it difficult to use. This is a replacement crank-up component as my previous one had failed. I contacted Maxview who supplied me with the parts. They said to replace the whole set of parts as they were fitted as a one time fitting and had to be broken to remove.
The dish is fine for signals but between a heavy rotation and the centre dropping down I am at a loss to find a solution.

Mine kept falling down while driving and landed on my wife's head once so I have put a screw in to hold it in place. When I originally fitted it I made the aluminium centre piece a fraction short so I have to keep banging it up while turning it around.
