Forester co-ax primer feature

I have been using a co-ax for a few years now but never used the priming feature on the press. I have always used a lee autoprime. Anyways, wanting to try somethin different, I was looking at it and was wondering when you adjust (I am not sure what the proper name ) for different shell sizes, how do you know when you are centered on the primer? There is 3 adjustments and I could see trouble if not lined up.
 
The press comes with an aligning pin the simulates a primer going into the pocket of the brass case so you can adjust the jaws of the shell holders. I started priming with the press years ago and it does give a consistent primer seat. I didn't like handling every primer individually, and switching between small, large, and magnum case heads was a pain. If you are not switching case head sizes, give the feature a try. I just use an RCBS hand seater now.

Same here effendude.

I tried the prime on press feature and it worked, but it was slow and resulted in a lot of dropped primers. I bought the RCBS Universal hand primer and now use it 100% of the time.
