Malcom and Ken,
Thanks for you instructions I feel a bit more relaxed about this now.
Indeed one of the tripod legs does have North marked on it and I was figuring on lining that up to true South. So if I line up the leg marked North to true South and line up the EQ head (Azimuth axis at this point)so the counter weight rod is in the centre of the south facing tripod leg( the telescope will now be pointing south) adjust the ALT axis to a latitude of 32.9 degrees then I should be at the starting point and only fine adjustments will be needed. Assuming Declination and right ascension are at 90 degrees.
I'm thinking I've got my head round it now, thanks very much gents for your guidance.
