Re: 2017 Bosch Seat Motor

We decided to use it to lower our gear holder to place it on the peg. We machined down a hex shaft to a square to fit tightly into the star output. It fits very tightly and we are very happy with how easily it lowers and lifts the gear holder with the gear in it. The encoder enable us to lower the holder to a specific degree to drop the gear on the peg or lean forward to receive the gear then come back to vertical. The only issue we are having is we are noticing that our encoder is losing counts and after repeated cycles of rotating up and down, it will not rotate down as far or rotate up as far.
