Sorry, but this does not seem right for an Alt/Az mount.
Certainly not for my 8SE. (a SCT on a single arm Alt Az mount)
Are you talking about using a wedge to make it act like a EQ mount?
Lilli,
If using the standard Alt Az mount, set up is much easier. There are several methods. Make sure to Read the manual.
Basic Auto Align worked fine for me 95% of the time.
Hope this helps
