I managed to align equations 12.5mm from the left by introducing an own
math style file (copy env-math.ts to ~/.TeXmacs/packages/env-math-own.ts)
and modifying


--env-math.ts----------------------------------------------
<TeXmacs|1.0.3>

...

  
<assign|equation|<macro|body|<with|mode|math|math-display|true|par-sep|0.45fn|<surround|<no-page-break*><vspace*|0.5fn><no-indent><assign|equationnr|<plus|<value|equationnr>|1>><assign|thelabel|<theequation>><htab|5mm>|<htab|5mm><with|mode|text|(<theequation>)><vspace|0.5fn><no-indent*>|<arg|body>>>>>


--EOF------------------------------------------------------

to

--env-math-own.ts------------------------------------------
<TeXmacs|1.0.3>

...

  <\with|par-mode|left>
  
<assign|equation|<macro|body|<with|mode|math|math-display|true|par-sep|0.45fn|<no-page-break*><vspace*|0.5fn><no-indent><assign|equationnr|<plus|<value|equationnr>|1>><assign|thelabel|<theequation>><space|12.5mm|0|0><arg|body><htab|5mm><with|mode|text|(<theequation>)>>>>
  </with>

    <associate|par-mode|justify>

...

  </collection>

You could use this and change <space|12.5mm|0|0> to <space|0|0|0> (or even 
remove it),
then the equation should be left aligned.
