I've been messing with DP&W racks and a ratcheting load binder (the barrel kind with eyes on both ends), in place of the adjuster bar. I've also installed a greased thrust plate on top of the pole (under the cap) so folks who'd care to can adjust azimuth. Just make sure to mark solar south. (I use a center punch). sometimes I'll weld a flat bar or something fun to the cinch bolts. db

Darryl,

I used to do this with off grid systems in days gone by. Jeff Randall at
Direct Power & Water is the Man on these.

He all
I need help designing or buying a seasonal adjuster. I have a customer that
insists on a seasonal adjustment. They would like 30 degrees summer side of
equinox and 50 degrees winter side. Wants to adjust twice a year at
equinox. Rack to be 3 sets of 3 modules each on two rails.

Every time I have tried this it is heavy and very difficult to do.
Darryl
