Mikee,
As far as I can tell switches #4 and #8 are unused and should be ignored.
You have set #1,#2.#3 for 1/4 step which is OK but 1/8 or 1/16 would be better and give a much smoother motor response.
You would be wise to initially set #5,#6,#7 (currently 3 Amps) to a lower current such as 1.5Amps for testing and setting up as this will dissipate less heat in the motors etc.
