counter weight

Got a very silly question to ask, with the counter weight on a EQ mount, are they meant to be sitting right below the telscope or the side? When viewing, the counter weight are normally facing the left and the telscope on the right in a slaint. Is that why im getting the shaky mirror effect when using the slow-mo knobs? You see, i still don't know the front/back of the mount. The pic below shows how i normally view.


Thanks
