4. Move
the roller handle (#22183) down and then back up to its rest position. Remove the hull
from the machine by pressing down on the locator button (#16753) and pour the shot back
into the shot dispenser. (Figure 33)

5. Place the hull back into station three and again move
the roller handle (#22183) down and then back to its rest position. Remove the hull and
weigh the shot charge. (Figure 34)

6. Using a 7/16" wrench, rotate the bolt located on
the end of the shot bar (#16738). Counterclock- wise turns will reduce the shot charge
weight. Clockwise turns will increase the shot charge weight. Adjust as needed.
7. Again, repeat steps 4 and 5 until you're happy with the shot charge.
Remember to place the clear hopper lid (#17138) back onto the shot dispenser.
Now that you have determined the shot charge, let's move on to
station four and five where the starter crimp die (#16747) |
|
and final seat/crimp functions
are performed. Let's use the same hull (with shot).
1. Place the hull (with shot) into station four.
2. Move the roller handle (#22183) down and then back to its rest
position. The formed and folded hull has just completed station four and has advanced to
station five. (Figure 35)

3. Once again, move the roller handle (#22183) down. As
you return to the rest position, you'll see the completed round advance and move out of
the machine. The completed round will fall down the shotshell chute (#16672) and land in
the Dillon bin (#17125). (Figure 36)

Review the dummy round you've just
made. Let's go ahead and make one more dummy round. Please note, when making these dummy
rounds, we start at station two and then go through all the remaining stations on the
machine. This is the introductory process. Next we'll be adding empty, fired hulls and new
primers. |
