Can someone remind me how to use the Dillon alignment tool?

I need to realign my platform on the 650. I have the tool, but cant find the instructions I remember it had to do with dropping the alignment tool in a powder die installed in station 1... I think...

Hopefully I can get it going without waiting to call Dillon the in the morning. My wife bought me a xdm .40 and all the reloading goodies, so I hope to make some ammo tonight and range time tomorrow.


Thanks

Betcha' there's instructions on their web site.
Pretty sure they have on line manuals for most of their stuff.

i thought so as well, but thats seems to be the one thing not on their site - or i am over looking it. I found the accessories manual that covers their optional accessories, but not this.

Google searches find lots of post where people are talking about needing to get the alignment tool or recommending that someone get the tool, but i am falling short on instructions.

Looking over it, it looks like it goes in a powder die in station two and should line up with the primer punch hole when the platform is aligned, can anyone confirm?
