Warranty Agreement
The Dillon Super 1050 reloader has been designed as a
commercial machine. Our expectation is that its life ex-
pectancy will be in excess of two million rounds of loaded am-
munition. All Super 1050 machines are warranted for life from
defects in material or workmanship, plus a one-year, 100%
warranty against normal wear. All electrical/electronic compo-
nents in Dillon equipment are covered by a one-year warranty.
Mandatory Safety Measures
The reloading of ammunition and the handling of compo-
nents (gun powder and primers) is inherently dangerous, in-
deed shooting firearms is inherently dangerous. Accidents can
and do occur, sometimes with disastrous results including, but
not limited to, loss of vision, hearing or life. These accidents
are nondiscriminatory, they occur with both the novice and the
experienced reloader.
Dillon Precision Products has consciously designed the
Super 1050 with this in mind. We’ve shielded the primer maga-
zine and machined clearance holes for the elimination of pow-
der and primer residue. In short, we have done everything we
know how, to make the use of our machine as safe as possible.
We cannot however, guarantee your complete safety. In
order to minimize your risk, use common sense when reload-
ing and follow these basic rules:
Never operate the machine without ear and eye protection
on. Call our customer service department at (800) 223-4570
for information on the wide variety of shooting/safety glasses
and hearing protection that Dillon has to offer. Or visit our
website at: www.dillonprecision.com
• PAY ATTENTION: Load only when you can give your com-
plete attention to the loading process. Don’t watch television
or try to carry on a conversation and load at the same time.
Watch the automatic systems operate and make sure they are
functioning properly. If you are interrupted or must leave and
come back to your loading, always inspect the cases at every
station to insure that the proper operations have been accom-
plished.
• SMOKING: Do not smoke while reloading or allow anyone
else to smoke in your reloading area. Do not allow open
flames in reloading area.
• SAFETY DEVICES: Do not remove any safety devices from
your machine or modify your machine in any way.
• MODIFICATIONS: Any modifications performed to your ma-
chine, or the addition of any unapproved equipment, including
automated or mechanical add-ons from other manufacturers, is
expressly not recommended and will void the Dillon warranty.
• LEAD WARNING: Be sure to have proper ventilation while
handling lead components or when shooting lead bullets. Lead
is known to cause birth defects, other reproductive harm and
cancer. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling anything
made of lead.
• LOADS AND LENGTHS: Avoid maximum loads and pres-
sures at all times. Use only recommended loads from manuals
and information supplied by reliable component manufacturers
and suppliers. Since Dillon Precision has no control over the
components which may be used on their equipment, no re-
sponsibility is implied or assumed for results obtained through
the use of any such components.
Seat bullets as close to maximum cartridge length as possi-
ble. Under some conditions, seating bullets excessively deep
can raise pressures to unsafe levels. Refer to a reliable loading
manual for overall length (OAL).
• QUALITY CHECKS: Every 50-100 rounds, perform periodic
quality control checks on the ammunition being produced.
Check the amount of powder being dropped and primer sup-
ply.
• RELOADING AREA: Keep your components safely stored.
Clear your work area of loose powder, primers and other flam-
mables before loading.
• COMPONENTS: Never have more than one type of powder
in your reloading area at a time. The risk of a mix-up is too
great. Keep powder containers closed.
Be sure to inspect brass prior to reloading for flaws, cracks,
splits or defects. Throw these cases away.
Keep components and ammunition out of reach of children.
• BLACK POWDER: Do not use black powder or black powder
substitutes in any Dillon powder measure. Loading black pow-
der cartridges requires specialized loading equipment and
techniques. Failure to do so can result in severe injury or death.
• PRIMERS: Never force primers. If they get stuck in the opera-
tion of the machine, disassemble it and gently remove the ob-
struction.
Never attempt to clear primers that are stuck in either the
primer pickup tube or the primer magazine tube. Never, under
any circumstances, insert any type of rod to attempt to force
stuck primers out of these tubes. Trying to force primers out of
the tube will cause the primers to explode causing serious in-
jury or even death.
If primers get stuck in a primer magazine or pickup tube
flood the tube with a penetrating oil (WD-40), throw the tube
in the garbage and call us for a free replacement.
Never attempt to deprime live primers – eventually one will
go off. When it does it will detonate the others in the spent
primer cup. Depriming live primers is the single most danger-
ous thing you can do in reloading and can cause grave injury
or death.
• LOADED AMMUNITION: Properly label all of your loaded
ammunition (Date, Type of Bullet, Primer, Powder, Powder
Charge, etc.).
• BE PATIENT: Our loading equipment is conservatively rated
and you should have no trouble achieving the published rates
with a smooth, steady hand. If something doesn’t seem right,
stop, look and listen. If the problem or the solution isn’t obvi-
ous, call us. The reloading bench is no place to get into a hurry.
• REMEMBER: If your machine does not perform to your ex-
pectations, or if you are having technical difficulties, give us a
call. Technical Support (800) 223-4570 or visit our trou-
bleshooting section at: www.dillonprecision.com
