Sightron alt az advice please?

[Greymouser]

Having recently got one and seen how poor the manual is, can anyone tell me how to set it up with the clamp on the outside please? There used to be a pic on FLO showing that way with a counterweight, but it is gone. I have looked, but lack the time to search for too long, so I hope someone knows how to set it up that way. Thanks in advance.

Here are some pic's.

From what I remember, you simply need to unscrew the large hand clamp on the altitude/clutch arm and pull the axis shaft out. Then swap it to the other side and reassemble. The Alan key was just to connect/disconnect the sections. The smaller black knob just alters the angle of the altitude arm. Hope this helps!

Remove the Allen head bolt I’m pointing to, rotate the two halves 180° relative to each other, and re-assemble.
