I was under the impression from Houghy you line up the brighter stars like Achemar first using the marks on the polar scope and then go for octans. It was a 2 step approach.
I have one of these coming and I have had a polar scope but never was able to master it. I am hoping this one is easier. Octans is very hard to see even at a dark site (like mine).
Those annotations should help. You definitely need a road map and the inclinometer and compass should get you a pretty close starting point.
