I obtained a CI-700 mount this morning and having
trouble understanding how to align the polar scope.
Can the mount be aligned without a telescope?
What is the sequence generally?

I am used to a CG-4 where the RA axis rotates along with
scope.

There are fairly detailed instructions in the manual.
