Polar Scope Troubles

[basher0010]

Hi everyone

i was out with my scope for an hour or so last night mainly so i could practice polar alignment and ive noticed my polar alignment scope requires adjusting basically the cross hairs rotate in a circular motion off centre with the motion of the scope

anyway does anyone know of a good guide to help with this as i would like to ensure my polar alignment is as bob on as possible

before moving on to the dreaded setting circles

many thanks clear skies everyone..
