There have been many modifications on the internet to help deal with the azimuth adjustment of the Meade Tripod and Wedge.

| When setting up the tripod, loosely align the legs in the spreader forks. The while slowly tightening the spreader knob, rock the tripod on two legs and proceed to do this with different pairs of legs until the spreader is tight. This will align the legs evenly and remove stresses from the assembly. |
