Oh and a couple of other points.
I find after I unlock the locking knobs, get everything adjusted so it looks "nice" tichten up the lock knobs and the spot in the laser collimator moves. Once I have tightened them all up, it usually ends up back in the right spot. Also, don't over tighten the locking knobs. I only turn them until I just feel resistance (once again Bob Knobs are much easier than the supplied gadgets)
With the light leak, I use the weakest setting that is visible in my laser as that reduces the size of the spot. Mine has settings from 1 to 8. In the dark (I usually do it in the dark!) It use either 1 or 2 but in daylight have to go much brighter. The laser with usually not produce a perfect round spot, so don't worry if its isn't.
And one more thing, give us a report on how your observing goes!
