And make sure your latitude is set up correctly, the Skywatcher gauges are not very accurate so try to use an inclinometer to set the angle. If you have the scope pointed to true south and at your latitude angle you should be very close to the South Celest pole. I don't know if the HEQ has the two adjustment screws for true south alignment on the base like the NEQ does but its a handy way of doing small movements.
