Step 5  Remove the primers: Remove the primers only if you need to change to a different size or type of primer.
1. Remove the shellplate (ref. Step 4).
2. Loosen and remove the two primer system bolts Figure 162.
3. Carefully lift the primer assembly away from the machine Figure 163.
4.  Figure 164 Empty the remaining primers by placing a finger over the primer shield cap, inverting the magazine and carefully pouring the primers onto the primer flip tray. Put the primers back into their original box.
5. If any primers remain in the primer area (on the machine) carefully remove them.
6.  If you need to change the rotary primer disc go to Step 6. If you only to need empty the primer magazine, reinstall the primer system at this time.
Note: About Steps 6, 7 and 8. If you're changing from a large rifle/pistol primer to a small rifle/pistol primer or vice versa, the rotary primer disc, primer magazine, and primer punch will have to be changed. This is because each of these three items are designed specifically for either large rifle/pistol primers or small rifle/pistol primers.

Step 6  Change the rotary primer disc (see note above):
Note: The two different size rotary primer discs are labeled L (large) and S (small).
1. Remove the shellplate (ref. Step 4).
2.  Remove the primer system and empty the primer magazine (ref. Step 5).
3. Rotate the primer system upside down. Using an 1/8" Allen wrench unscrew the primer support shim screw and remove the primer support shim screw and remove the primer support shim Figure 165.
4. Remove the rotary primer disc  Figure 166. Make sure the detent ball remains in place.
5. Place the other rotary primer disc onto the disc pin.
6.  Slip the primer support shim back into place and snug the screw.
7. Reinstall the primer system.
