4. How do I stop 2"-OD Chromoly mast from slipping in PST-61C
rotator clamp? (David J Windisch)
David,
If you are using the stainless steel bolts in the clamp, throw them away.
They have stretched and will continue to until they snap.
What I suggest is take them out and get the next size up Grade 8 bolts.
Drill the 6 holes out for the new bolts. It only takes a 60 seconds to do
this.
Put in the new hardware and bolts. And tighten it with a lot o torque.
This should fix it.
Jay
