PDF with descriptions in the link below

Counter weights are up and done and EW fro the OTA. Just make sure you have a bubble level

Havnt tried this with a non AP mount but provided you can set your own park positions there shouldn’t be a reason not to

Can you provide a description of the two park positions? Reading the PDF it sounds like Park 1 is CW shaft horizontal - what position is the OTA in? It sounds like the OTA is also horizontal from the Cloudy Nights discussion. Is that correct?

Park 2 sounds like OTA is horizontal in the east-west plane - what position is the CW shaft in? Vertical?

Cheers,

Peter
