I'm also a dob user but have noticed that EQ users often end up with the eyepiece in an odd place after moving from one area of the sky to another and resort to loosening the rings to enable rotating the tube so that the eyepiece is more accessible.

As for adjustments, if it's well ballanced then you should be able to unlock the releases and swing the scope around to the vicinity of your intended target.

I have found the Telrad finder a great help with the dob and think it would help many EQ users too.

All the best!
