This is not only the PE..
Take note, you have errors in both RA and DEC. Was the mount properly aligned?
If it was, the pictures show the whole thing is wobbling.. or the tapered bearings (on the the RA shaft) are dirty and/or not properly adjusted/tightened.
BTW, PE on my specimen of EQ6 PE was around 23 arcsec pp. about the same as yours (minus wobbling, if there is one)
