I only loosen the clutches only to perform a very rudimentary "one star alignment" to help with initial slewing to star pairs... but I don't need to do this anymore with plate solving.

Afterwards, its obviously adjustment using the PA bolts only. The software helps with separating out az from alt PA error because depending upon where your stars are in the sky, the error may be a contribution of either or both axes.
