If the decapper needs running in for a long period, then put an elastic band
over the peg spring to keep them separated from the case pusher and run
the decapper for a few hours. The running in period may need to be up to 12
hours (very rare).
Yes, the DC motors will run warm / hot to touch, especially when new. The
Decapper can get up to 75 Deg C (167F) when new. The Decapper will cool
down significantly after about 30 hours of operation. This is normal.
➢
Switch operation
In the forward position, the switch will stay on, the reverse switch will return
to the off position when released.
❖
The switch is a heavy-duty unit and should last a very long time. If
you allow the switch to “arc”
it will burn out the contacts and
ultimately fail. Use the variable speed controller to control the
motor speed rather than trying to use the switch.
