Here is something I put together in power point hope it helps. The second is from starry night from your location, it will show you where the celestial equator runs. took me for ever to figure that out.

I didnt bother with the altitude side because thats easy. if the star drifs up the adjust the altitude of your scope to bring it back down and vise versa. Dont be afraid to make big adjustments. If the star move really quickly make big adjustments.

good luck
