your powder charge, clockwise increases the charge.

Adjusting the Powder Charge

You will notice an adjusting bolt on the back of the

powder bar, Fig. 22.. Turning the bolt counter-

clockwise reduces your powder charge, clockwise

increases the charge. Your machine comes with two

powder bars – one large and one small.

Fig. 23 - After emptying the powder measure, loosen the

bellcrank screw (#13904) sufficiently to allow you to

remove the powder bar. Insert the new powder bar and

reverse this procedure.

Rule of thumb: Use the large bar whenever

possible. These bars are easily changed, Fig. 23. Use a

reloading manual to determine how much powder

you need for a particular load and an accurate

powder scale to determine the weight. A high quality

#13904

precision powder scale is available from Dillon. You

should now fill the powder measure with your

chosen powder. Place an empty case under the

measure and operate the machine's handle. Then, by

trial and error adjustments, determine the correct

weight of your powder charge. You are now ready to

fill the primer magazine.

Primer Early Warning System Installation

(See item #20302 on page five for assistance.)

Remove the follower rod (#13707) from the

assembly bag and set it aside. Install the battery and

the battery cover (#13857) in the system's main body.

Slide the Early Warning System assembly down over

the knurled cap on your primer magazine (#13957) and

lightly tighten the clamp screw.

Primer Magazine

You will notice that the primer magazines and

primer pick-up tubes have different colored tips.

They have been color coded to help you identify

size more easily.

The color code is as follows:

Blue

Small Primer Magazine Orifice

Red

Large Primer Magazine Orifice

Yellow

Small Primer Pick-up Tube

Green

Large Primer Pick-up Tube

Fig. 24 - Use of the primer pickup tube and the Dillon

Primer flip tray.

Select the proper size pick-up tube and fill it by

placing the plastic expandable tip over loose primers

and pressing down. The shiny sides of the primers

need to be facing up, Fig. 24.

This is most easily accomplished by using a primer

flip tray, which will arrange them all for you, Fig. 24. A

quality cast metal flip tray is available from Dillon and

is a better choice than the smaller plastic trays which

are difficult to use and have a tendency to warp.
