Is anybody using this manual rotator? Are you getting any tilt? How well does it work?

I bought one recently for use on a WO GT81 MkII and had to return it...couldn't reach focus with the rotator installed. Not enough inward focus travel.
I guess one needs to make sure of this before purchase (ooppss).
Ended up selling the MkII and bought a new MkIV with integrated rotator.
