About the installation, I see you have no motor, the mount is incorrectly assembled and you have too much play on the mast.
If the pipe is 3"OD, then you have to readjust the set screws...
Agreed on the mast diameter but at a loss on the mount assembly. It did not look correct to me either but the longer i look at it I do not see another way to assemble the thing. Sure looks odd though. Since you are using no motor/actuator what st are you trying to receive? You will only get one without the ability to steer the dish.
