    In my opinion it is dangerous to mount the Pod on the drive side .A 360 degree rotation came faster than you know.When the electronics tilt or the Pod breaks or something else.Better is to in mount the pod to the other side.

    Remove the security ring ( later you must replace him with a new one.You find this part on ebay for littel money)

    Remove the black cover from the other side,and put the part out from the motor.Clean a little bit.

    Looks somthing like that.
    Now the Professional part.
    Drill a hole in the middel of the axis.It must be verry centered and straight.I drillet 5 mm and a 6 mm thread.
    Now you can use a screw with a cover nut to adjust the screw.Cut the head from the screw.

    Builds everything back together.Dont forget the security ring.For a flexible coupling i use a Air Pipe to connect the pod.It works verry well.
