Re: window motor backlash

the rule states that you cannot modify the motor. now questions have come up many times about modifying the gear boxes attached to the motors. this is of course ok becuase it is just like removing the gearbox completly(is legal) and making your own. the violation would occure if you opend the motor and added your own busihings or something of that sort.

as for the back lash we experienced that last year quite abit, so much that they stripped themselves silly. part of the problem is the high amount of give in the worm gear.
