Well, I think I finally nailed the polar alignment.

A: 1 E: -1

Here are the rest of the modeling parameters:
dH 26′
dD -2′
NE 33′ (Axis non-perpendicularity at the equator)
NP -7′ (Axis non-perpendicularity at the pole)
IH -35′ (Index error in hour angle)
ID -3′ (Index error in declination)
CF -3′ (Counterweight flexure)
FR 44′ (Mirror flop/Gear play in RA)
FD -0′ (Mirror flop/Gear play in Dec)

I looked up the definitions for all this, but I’m not entirely certain what it means, or how normal any of these numbers are.
