The Operation of The Automatic Primer System—read section 16 on Primers
•
Primers are seated by pushing the Operating Handle fully to the rear, from the Operating Handle’s
“neutral position” at the top of the Operating Handle’s stroke.
•
CAUTION! The “feel method” in the seating primers is a critical learning method of the reloading
process.
•
Primers will not be seated properly if the Handle is not pushed firmly and fully to the
rear from the Handle at rest position.
•
If the primer takes too much force to be seated and the Handle cannot be cycled
completely to the rear—STOP and inspect the case. The primer pocket may be
damaged or it could have a crimped (military) primer pocket or a ring from a fired
primer may be left in the primer cup, or the Primer Cup may not be properly aligned
with the Shellplate/Platform.
•
Low resistance to seating a primer can indicate an enlarged primer pocket that may
not retain the primer. Discard this case.
•
Verify that the system feeds primers as follows:
•
Remove the plastic Follower Rod from the Primer Magazine Tube.
•
Verify the Magazine Tube Size is correct--The Magazine Tube with a Blue Tip is for
small primers and the Magazine Tube with a Red Tip is for large primers.
•
Install the Magazine Tube in the Magazine Shield. The tab on the plastic Magazine
Tip, red or blue, must be gently aligned with the slot down in the Primer Feed Body
Housing and then slid down about a 1/4” more. Now tighten the knurled Cap just
snug.
Note—these tips can be damaged.
