10. Lift the plastic primer tray straight off the
primers. Do not rotate. Check that no primers have
turned on their side. If so, straighten.

11. Raise the primer gate and the group of primers
will slide down to the primer slide upper (#16713).

Note that every complete stroke of the roller
handle (#22183) will feed one primer into the
machine while at the same time completing the other
processes within the machine.
Lets Begin Making a Few Rounds
If you’re like me, you have already figured out that
when you cycle the roller handle (#22183), hulls feed
into the shellplate and primers also feed into the
machine. Let’s begin making a few rounds and I’ll
explain the loading process, using the first hull as our
guide.
1. With all the stations empty, move the roller
handle (#22183) down and then back up to its full aft
position. A hull has been fed into the shellplate.

2. Push the roller handle (#22183) aft, away from
you. Doing so inserts the hull fully into the shellplate
and the first primer appears at station two. Remove
this primer and set it aside.

3. Move the roller handle (#22183) down. The first
hull is being resized and the old primer has been
removed from the hull.
4. Return the roller handle (#22183) to its rest
position. The first hull advances to station two and
another hull has been fed to the shellplate.

5. Push the roller handle (#22183) aft, away from
you. Doing so seats the new primer into the first hull
at station two, and another hull is fully seated into the
