An EQ mount does take a little work to use successfully. I normally recommend beginners go for a dobsonian scope first so they can learn how a scope works, learn their way around the sky etc before taking on the challenge of the EQ mount. But in this case the main thing is you have a scope and the thing we want is to help you get the best out of it!

Have you been able to polar align it at all? If so the main advantage of an EQ is at your call which is the ability to track objects as they move across the sky.
