How do you shoot in prime focus with the SW 1149 EQ2?

I raised the primary mirror. To do this, I replaced the locking screws with longer ones. However, there still isn't enough back focus—just a couple of millimeters short. I had to manually bring the camera to the focuser without a T-adapter and, holding it by hand, shoot series of frames.
