I have a Meade 10 SCT and a zummall crawford fousers on it and I can,t figure how to get the FR to mount to the crawford. ??? I screwed the FR to the back of the sct but how do you get the fouser to fit.......

BTW...I did not get to good results using 2" WA EP's in my 8" SCT. I think there made mainly for AP and using 1.25" EP 32mm and below?
