The gentleman in the video was turning the focuser into a position that makes it impossible to use visually, toward the mount. Turn the scope in the other direction so the focuser is pointed away from the mount and with a 3 foot step platform ladder it can be used visually while it is in balance.? If one is using a camera the access to the focuser is not very important. Weather one has a Newtonian or a refractor the scope should be balanced in both positions.
I have to do this every time out with my set up.
Clear Skies!
