  A single-mirror small-size (SST-1M) Davies-Cotton telescope with a dish
diameter of 4 m has been built by a consortium of Polish and Swiss institutions
as a prototype for one of the proposed small-size telescopes for the southern
observatory of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The design represents a
very simple, reliable, and cheap solution. The mechanical structure prototype
with its drive system is now being tested at the Institute of Nuclear Physics
PAS in Krakow. Here we present the design of the prototype and results of the
performance tests of the structure and the drive and control system.
