Abstract
The 60-foot tower services were restarted for the summer. The mechanical actuator for the east/west axis on the second flat had almost seized, and so this was disassembled and cleaned. Some diagnostic work was performed on the guider module which indicated a fault due to loose interface cards, particularly the guider level threshold cards for both axes. No attempt has yet been made to secure the cards and improve their reliability.
