Any tips on transfer alignment? (beehaw.org)

In the past I used a Graves mast and the cutting head used doos with a tiny hole and brass rod to align the dop to the index. This worked really well on transfer to align both dops.

Now with my ultratec I swear I have yet to get a properly aligned index on transfer with their transfer jig. I have to always test a polish on a girdle facet and use the cheater to re-align the index.

Anyone have any tips?
