I've never used that sort of kit, and I'm unlikely to at those prices. The last time I set the tracking I used some very simple lengths of steel fixed to both front wheels and measuring between the front & rear of the length to set the wheels.

I've also used the famous string method which is a fiddle but quite accurate according to my local garage who checked it afterwards on their alignment rig. Lots of info on the web, but this page gives you an idea.
