Can't release RA axis manually

You need to pull the emergency release and allow the door to rest on the floor. Next loosen the tensioner bolt on the chain and rotate the chain around the drive sprocket at the motor until the carrier ( the part the emergency release locks into) engages into the arm that pulls the door. Once the emergency release latches back into the carrier you can tighten the tensioner bolt on the chain.

Your DEC is the same as your Latitude--

Right Ascension does not matter for now. Polar Align the scope on the star Polaris-- read this:

http://arnholm.org/astro/polar_alignment/index.html

Once you are polar aligned, rotate the tube to a star in the sky that you KNOW the name of. Look up the Right Ascension of that star on a cell phone app or a laptop planetarium program like this one:
www.stellarium.org

Rotate the RA setting circle so it matches what the phone or laptop indicate. LOCK down the RA circle. Your scope is now adjusted to the sky and you can use the numbers on the DEC and RA to find other objects of known RA & DEC.

Your RA motor is defective and or the gear is not engaging the drive axis.

Hi I can gave you some error codes but this all I can do hope it be of help to you.
8,009.4x:CAP_FAULT_MP_NO_ CLUTCH_STALL:

• The media path motor has stalled while moving without the clutch engaged.

33,001.4x - TM_DEV_FAULT_MPT_WIDTH_VALUE_TOO_LOW

• Tray 1 status:

1. Check the wiring and connectors from the front door to the I/O board.
2. Run the Test Tray 1 Width Sensors.
3. If the test fails replace the front door.
4. Replace the I/O board.

08.055.44:

• The media path drive module has stalled while engaging the head tilt.

37,008.44:

• The Preheat preheater is not drawing the expected power from the supply.

Run the Preheat Heater test, check the wiring. If test fails and no apparently problem is evident, replace the preheater.

05,002.42:

• Problems with the Y-axis. It could be the belt,motor or the drum.

7,008.4x: PM_FAULT_HEADTILT_NOT_ ENGAGED

• The printhead tilt is not engaged, so it didn't tilt back properly or the printhead is stuck in the tilted position by the tilt lock arms. The process motor gear train getting out of sync can also cause this error.
  

1. Try rebooting the printer.
2. Check for an obstruction or damage in the process gearbox.
3. Ensure the gears are correctly aligned and homed. If faulty replace the process gearbox
assembly.
4. Run the Tilt Axis Drive test to test the headtilt.
5. Run the Head Maintenance Wiper Clutch test. If the test fails, replace the wiper drive clutch.
6. Run the Wiper Axis Drive test.
7. Replace the exit assembly.

7,010.4x: PM_FAULT_HEADTILT_HOME_ERROR

• The printhead is stuck in the tilt position by the tilt arms. The process motor gearbox being out of sync can also cause this error.
  

1. Reboot the printer.
2. Verify the lock arms rotate correctly.
3. Check for spilled ink around the printhead.
4. Check the process motor gears for damage. Ensure the process gears are correctly aligned and homed.
5. Verify the process gear box, process shaft, and drive module shaft are at home position.
6. Verify the headtilt gear will engage, see the home positioning procedure on page. You can manually engage the headtilt gear.
7. Run the Tilt Axis Drive test.
8. Run the Process Motor test.
9. Run the Head Maintenance Clutch test, if the test fails replace the clutch.
10.Run Wiper Drive test. If this fails inspect the wiper drive system.

Don't think you will find a manual anywhere on the internet.

Try using Google but I don't think any exist.

A grinding noise indicates the gears are broken or not engaging properly. Sorry.
