Warranty Agreement

The Dillon Super 1050 reloader has been designed as a commercial machine. Our expectation is that its life expectancy will be in excess of two million rounds of l

oaded ammunition. 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 components in Dillon equipment are covered by a one-year warranty.

Mandatory Safety Measures

The reloading of ammunition and the handling of components (gun powder and primers) is inherently dangerous, indeed 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 magazine and machined clearance holes for the elimination of powder 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 reloading and follow these basic rules:

Never operate the machine without ear and eye protection on. Call our customer service department at (800) 2234570 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 complete attention to the loading process. Don’

t w

atch 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 accomplished.

• 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 remo

e an

y safety devices

from your machine or modify your machine in any way.

• MODIFIC

ATIONS: Any modifications performed to your

mac

hine, or the addition of an

y unappro

ed equipment

from other manufacturers will void the warranty.

• LEAD

WARNING: Be sure to have proper ventilation

hile handling lead components or w

hen shooting lead bullets. Lead is known to cause birth defects, other reproducti

ve harm and cancer. Wash your hands thoroughly after

handling an

ything made of lead.

• LOADS AND LENGTHS: Avoid maximum loads and pressures at all times. Use only recommended loads from man

uals and information supplied b

y reliable component man

ufacturers and suppliers. Since Dillon Precision has no con-

trol over the components which may be used on their equipment, no responsibility is implied or assumed for results obtained through the use of any such components.

Seat bullets as close to maximum cartridge length as

ossible. 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 supply.

• RELOADING AREA: Keep your components safely stored. Clear your work area of loose powder, primers and other flammables 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 chil-

dren.

• BLACK POWDER: Do not use black powder or black powder substitutes in any Dillon powder measure. Loading black powder cartridges requires specialized loading equipment and techniques. F

ailure to do so can result in severe

injury or death.

• PRIMERS: Never force primers. If they get stuck in the operation of the machine, disassemble it and gently remo

the obstruction.

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 injury or even death.

If primers get stuc

k in a primer magazine or pic

kup tube flood the tube with a penetrating oil (WD-40), throw the tube in the garbage and call us for a free replacement.

Nev

er attempt to deprime li

ve 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 dangerous thing y

ou can do in reloading and can cause

e injury or death.

• LOADED AMMUNITION: Properly label all of your loaded ammunition (Date,

ype of Bullet, Primer

, Powder,

wder Charge, etc.).

• BE PATIENT: Our loading equipment is conservatively r

ated and y

ou should ha

ve no trouble achieving the pub-

lished r

ates with a smooth, stead

y hand. If something does

n’t seem right, stop, look and listen. If the problem or the solution isn’

t ob

vious, call us.

The reloading bench is no

place to get into a hurry

• REMEMBER: If your machine does not perform to your expectations, or if y

ou are ha

ving tec

hnical difficulties, gi

us a call.

make whatever adjustments to the dies you feel necessary.

eminder: There may be some varia-

tion due to components.

Super 1050 Assembly

Your new Super 1050 has been assembled at the factory. All of the adjustments necessary to reload have a

lready been made, in fact we’ve even adjusted the dies to reload the caliber you have chosen. However, before you can reload you must do some minor assembly.

Due to variations in components, check all stations for proper settings before loading ammunition. It is absolutely necessary that you read the following instructions.

If you get stuck on something that you don’t understand, call (800) 223-4570 for technical assistance.

Step 1: Mounting the Super 1050

Select a clear area on your reloading bench. Be certain your bench is free from vibration and is strong enough to support your Super 1050’s mass and operating force. If possible, attach your bench to the wall using screws.

Remove the Super 1050 main frame from the packaging and place it on your selected area. The crank extension (#11061) should be to your right. Bring the machine to the forward edge of your bench – be sure to allow clearance for operation of the handle. Mark the four mounting holes using the

machine as a template. Remove the machine and drill four 1/4” holes t

hrough the bench. Replace the

machine and bolt securely.

Fig. 1

Install the handle (#17071) as indicated in the parts schematic. Secure in place with the handle set screw (#13432). Fig. 2 You will note that there are three different positions for mounting the operating handle. Choose the one that feels best for you. The longer the handle, the less force required but the stroke is longer.

The toolhead (#20420) is held down on the main frame for shipping by the use of plastic ties. Remove the ties while holding the handle Fig 3.

The casefeed bowl assembly needs

to be placed on the casefeed post with the Dillon logo and the on/off switch f

acing you.

The casefeed tube (#20533*) should now be inserted into the casefeed adapter (#13654*)

Fig. 7 Note that the tube is marked “up” on one end. P

ress this end into the tube clip (#13859) attached to the casefeeder m

otor housing Fig. 8. This assembly is

now complete.

Step 3: Installing the Powder Measure

Remove the blue cap from the powder

ie (#20320) and loosely clamp the powder measure in position. Fig. 9 Install the powder measure return rod (#13960) through the 3/8” eyebolt (#13089) mounted on the left rear of the m

ain frame. Fig. 10Now attach the rod to the powder measure bellcrank using t

he clip. Fig. 10 Install the spring (#14033) and wing nut (#13799) on the rod and screw the wing nut up until you feel light tension on the spring. Tighten the powder measure clamp screws (#14037).

Step 4: Installing the Spent Primer Cup

and Bullet Bin

Install the spent primer cup (#16699) on the right side as shown on the schematic on page 27. Fig. 11

Hook the bullet bin (#13756) and the collection bin (#13484) on to their respectiv

e brackets. Fig. 12

Super 1050, May 2007 5/21/07 12:00 PM Page 7

Step 5: Cycling the Machine

At this point your assembly should be

omplete. Gently pull the operating handle towards you, make a full stroke to the bottom and up again. The shellplate should be indexing and the primer slide (#20318*) should function. The casefeed p

lunger (#13073*) should travel forward to the shellplate. Make sure that you r

epeat this several times to gain an understanding of the various functions of the machine before you start reloading.

Fig. 13

Now plug in the casefeed motor and activate the switch. The casefeed plate should turn smoothly within the casefeed bowl.

Assuming that all is well, proceed with components.

Loading Components

our Super 1050 is equipped with a cartridge activated powder measure that will dispense po

wder only when a car-

tridge is in Station 5.

It is important to understand that the adjustable powder bar should reach the end of its travel at the same time that the handle reaches the bottom of its

stroke against the frame stop. Fig. 14 To achieve this adjustment, the die body must be screwed up or down as needed.

The powder die has already been adjusted at the factory. An empty case must be placed in the shellplate at Station 5 in order to check this adjustment. Note that the case used to adjust the powder measure die must already be sized.

NOTE: If you are adjusting for a straight wall case, start your powder die adjustment with the die obviously too high and w

ork down. This will avoid

over belling the case.

If you are adjusting a case with a shoulder, such as a .223, do not turn the die down too far or the shoulder will buckle.

Use a reloading manual to determine how much powder you need for a particular load and an accur

ate powder

scale to determine the weight. Caution:

While you do not have to use a Dillon Precision powder scale, you should use a

scale of equal quality. Do not use scales with plastic frames or “razor blade” pivots. Quality scales have jeweled pivot points. Razor blade pivots can dig into the frame of the scale and g

ive dangerously inaccurate readings.

Powder Measure Adjustments

n Station 5 we adjust the powder measure. It works like this: screw the powder die into the toolhead and insert the pistol powder funnel expander or a rifle powder funnel with the grooved end toward the top of the powder die. Fig. 15 The funnel should move freely in the die, leaving a loose fit between the top of the die and the powder measure collar. This will enable you to adjust the die to give you a bell on the mouth of your pistol cases making it easier to start the bullet.

On rifle cases, the die should be adjusted so that the powder funnel will contact the mouth of the case and then fully actuate the powder bar. These adjustments are accomplished with a sized case in the shellplate and alternately raising and lowing the operating handle while adjusting the powder die.

When properly adjusted, the powder bar will be moved to the end of its travel by the cartridge case

Fig. 14.

When y

ou ha

e determined that your adjustments are correct, tighten the lock ring (#14067). Fig. 16

Powder Bar Return Rod Assembly

The purpose of the powder bar return

rod is to return the po

wder bar to its

closed position.

Fig. 13 - Cycle the handle several times to observ

e the v

arious functions.

g. 14 - This photo shows the powder bar at

the end of its travel.

Fig. 15 - Note the difference between the rifle expander (center) and the pistol expander (right).

Fig. 16 - Be sure to tighten the lock ring w

hen adjustments are completed.

Super 1050, May 2007 5/21/07 12:00 PM Page 8

Remove the blue cap from the powder die (#20320) and loosely clamp the p

owder measure in position.

To install the powder bar return rod (#13960) remove the blue wing nut (#13799) and rod spring (#14033) from the rod, then insert the bottom end t

hrough the 3/8” eyebolt (#13089) that is mounted on the left rear of the main f

rame.

Next, using your thumb and index finger of your left hand, move the locklink down and align the hole with the slot on the bellcrank. Then, insert the rod through the two holes and insert the return rod clip (#13929).

Fig. 17

Install the spring (#14033) and wing nut (#13799) on the rod and screw the wing nut up until you feel light tension on the spring.

ig. 18Tighten the po

der measure clamp screws (#14037).

You will notice an adjusting bolt on

the front of the powder bar. Counterclockwise reduces the powder charge, clockwise increases the charge.

Fig. 19

Your machine comes with two powder bars. Fig. 20 One large (#20063) and one small (#20062).

Index a sized and primed case under the measure and operate the machine’s handle.

Turning the powder bar adjustment bolt clockwise increases the powder charge – counterclockwise turns decreases the powder charge. By trial and error, determine the correct weight of your powder charge by using a powder scale.

Fig. 19

When the correct powder charge

had been set, c

ycle sev

through the machine and chec

k the

load with a scale.

Primer Magazine

Select the proper size primer pick-up tube and fill it by placing the plastic tip o

er loose primers and pressing down.

You will notice that the primer magazines and primer pick-up tubes have different colored tips. They have been color coded to help you identify size more easily.

The color code is as follows: Blue Small Primer Magazine

rifice

ed Large Primer Magazine

Orifice Yellow Small Primer Pick-up Tube Green Large Primer Pick-up Tube

The shiny side of the primers should

be facing up. This is most easily accomplished by use of a primer flip tray. Fig. 21 This quality cast metal flip tray is available from Dillon Precision and is a better choice than the smaller plastic trays which are difficult to use and have a tendency to warp.

Once you’ve filled the pick-up tube,

make sure the little retaining clip is in place at the top of the tube.

and invert the pick-up tube over the primer shield cap (#13957). You will n

otice the cap has a bevel to help you funnel the primers in. Hold the tube in place as shown in

Fig. 22, pull the retaining pin and allow the primers to drop into the magazine. Pivot the s

witch the lever back over the Early Warning System housing. Gently slide the follower rod down through the switch lever and into the primer magazine tube. When you are nearly out of p

rimers, approximately three remaining,

the follower will activate the buzzer.

The Electric Casefeeder

Use only clean cartridge cases that have been inspected for any potential problems; split cases, rocks or smaller caliber cartridges that may be hidden in larger caliber cartridges.

Fig 23

Warning: Be sure that no loaded rounds

are mixed with your empty cases. It is possible to feed a blunt nosed cartridge like a .38 Sp. WC into the shellplate upside do

wn and explode it when it is

hit by the decap pin.

w fill the casefeed bowl with

approximately 500 pistol cases or about 350 rifle cases.

our Super 1050 is now charged with components and ready to go, but before you start reloading, read the following explanation of the sequence of the eight reloading stations and the processes that a

re done at each station.

Review: How the Super

1050 Works

Stations 1 - 8 (counterclockwise)

Station 1: Empty cases are automati-

cally inserted into the shellplate via the electric casefeeder.

Station 2: Here the spent cartridge

cases are resized and deprimed.

Station 3: T

his station is totally unique. The case is supported from the inside and slightly expanded (not belled) w

hile simultaneously a swager is driven into the primer pocket to remove any crimp.

Station 4: A new primer is installed at this station. The spring driven primer slide is extremely smooth. The steel shrouded primer magazine is capped with an electronic Early Warning Device to let you know when you’re down to approximately three primers.

Station 5: Here the case is belled and po

wder is dropped by the case-activated

powder measure. It is extremely accurate

and will not drop powder unless a case is present. Dillon Precision offers an o

ptional accessory to be utilized with the automatic powder measure at this station – Dillon’s Low Powder Sensor provides an audible and visual reminder when it’s time to refill the powder reserv

oir.

Station 6: This station is open to allow

or case inspection.

tation 7: The bullet is seated to its

proper depth at this station.

Station 8: In this station, the bullet is crimped into place. The cartridge is then automatically ejected into a collection bin.

As stated earlier, your dies have been adjusted at the factory. Before you change anything, try it the way it is, once you thoroughly understand the machine’s operation, make whatever adjustments to the dies you feel necessary.

Reminder: There may be some variation due to components.

To Begin Reloading

Turn on the switch on the front of the casefeed motor housing. The casefeeder plate should begin to turn. Cases will begin to dispense, base down, into the clear plastic casefeed tube. The motor will continue to run until the tube is full, at which point a micro-switch will temporarily stop the case flow.

From this point the casefeeder will automatically fill the tube as you reload. If the casefeeder does not function properly or the cases do not fall base down, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual.

Fig. 24 - The casefeed bowl will hold approximately 500 pistol cases or 350 rifle cases. Do not overload the casefeed bowl.

Fig. 23 - When loading, use only cleaned and inspected cartridge cases.

Station 1 -

he casefeed plunger inserts the

case into the shellplate.

Fig. 25 - Dillon’s Low Powder Sensor gives an audible and visual warning when the powder reservoir gets low.

Pull the operating handle smoothly to the bottom stop, then raise the handle, a c

ase has been fed to Station 1. Cycle the handle again, strive to be smooth in your operation.

The first case should be indexed to

Station 2. Cycle the handle again.

It is not necessary to apply any force on the upstroke of the handle. All you are doing on the upstroke is indexing the shellplate. Remember that priming is done on the down stroke. A slow measured upstroke gives you lots of time to pick up the next bullet and ready it for seating. If you count one second down, and one second up, you’ll have a good pace.

The first case should now be in Station 3 with a case in Stations 1 & 2

as well. Cycle the handle again. The case is swaged and expanded at Station 3

. Observe the swage operating part (#20314*), if the swage is proper, proceed – if not see items 3 and 4 in the Troubleshooting section of this manual. Cycle the handle again and the case gets p

rimed at

tation 4.

If the primer is not seated properly

(

too high or too deep) you will need to adjust the primer push rod (#12819). Clockwise turns of the primer push rod will cause the primer to be seated deeper while counterclockwise turns will seat the primer higher.

The first case in the sequence should

now be primed and at

Station 5. Remove the locator button (#20637*), extract the round and check the primer. If everything looks okay, replace the case and button and proceed. However, if the primer is not seated properly (too high or too deep) y

ou will need to adjust the primer push rod (#12819). Clockwise turns of the primer push rod will cause the primer to be seated deeper while counterclockwise turns will seat the primer higher.

Cycle the handle again, the automatic powder measure will drop the charge y

ou’

ve selected. Pistol casemouths will be belled at this time. Look through the inspection hole in

Station 6 – you

should be able to see y

our po

wder

harge in the case.

Cycle the handle again. Now, with your left hand, place a bullet on the powder-charged case at

Station 7 and cycle the handle. Your bullet will be seated to its proper depth, if not, a simple height adjustment to the seating stem may be necessary. Refer to a loading manual for proper loaded length (OAL).

Cycle the handle again and check for crimp at

Station 8. Refer to Troubleshooting item 8 for adjustments if necessary. Add a bullet, cycle again. Your first loaded round should now be ejected into the collection bin.

If all has gone well to this point

ou’ve got it made. Just keep adding bul-

lets, w

atc

h your fingers so they don’t get caught and don’t hurry. Just try to be smooth in y

our operation. The speed will

come natur

ally and you’ll be doing a thousand rounds per hour before you even realize it.

The following are some adjustment suggestions as well as Troubleshooting hints.

Station 5 - Here the case mouth is belled and powder dispensed.

Station 2 - Here, spent cartridge cases are resized and deprimed.

tation 7 - In this station, the bullet is seat-

d to its proper depth.

Station 8 - Here the case is crimped and then ejected out of the shellplate with the next pull of the handle.

Station 3 - Here the case mouth is expanded while a rod supports the case base for swaging.

Adjustments

Casefeeder

It may be necessary to readjust the micro-switch for different calibers. C

ases may become lodged between the micro-switch and the tube wall. The o

ther extreme is the case failing to put enough pressure on the micro-switch to shut off the system causing it to continue running and over flowing the tube.

emove the two clutch screws (#13732), lock washer (#13813) and upper clutch (#13632) and the casefeed plate. Place the spacer on the shoulder of the lower clutch and reassemble – see the schematic on page 31 for more details. The casefeed plate should now be approximately 1/8” above the floor of the casefeed bowl. Note: Make sure the casefeed plate is centered in the bowl.

Fig. 26

Handle

The operating handle is adjustable to

hree different length settings Fig. 27

. Choose the one most comfortable for your operation. Loosen the set screw (#13432) then retighten when the handle is in the most comfortable position.

Swager

Swaging on the Super 1050 is a simple process and is necessary on all cart

ridge cases as a means of uniforming the entrance of the primer pocket. Fig. 28 The swage rod (#20314 large or #20313 - small) is fully adjustable.

Swage Conversion and

Adjustment Conversion – Fig. 29

Begin by removing the swage cover (#13064). Next remove the hitch pin (#13840) and slide out the clevis pin

(#13522). Remove the operating handle. Rotate the swage connecting rod a half t

Swage Adjustments

Use ONLY an unswaged military case

for these adjustments.

With the handle in the down position, screw the swage back-up expander down until it makes contact with the case bottom and holds it in place.

With the handle still in the down position, turn the s

age rod up until it

makes contact with the case bottom.

Raise the handle halfway and rotate the swage rod a quarter turn. Now, cycle the handle. Inspect the case and when you achieve a completed swage of the primer pocket, tighten the swage lock nut (#14067).

A properly swaged pocket will show a rounded edge around the rim. Some military cases (.223 & .308) start out with three small dents around the base

Station 5 - Adjustment of the Powder

Die/Powder Funnel

Note: Adjusting the powder die for

a str

aight wall case is not the same as adjusting a powder die for a bottlenecked case. This is because straight w

all cases are given a bell and bottle-

necked cases are not given a bell.

For the powder bar to properly dispense a measured powder charge, the po

wder bar must travel its full distance. To travel its full distance, the white cube must contact the powder measure body (see arrow FIG 52).

Also the belling process does not begin until after the powder bar has trav-

eled its full distance. The angled portion on the bottom of the powder funnel (Fig.

53) is what bells the cartridge. Once the white cube has contacted the powder measure body the case is forced upward against the tapered portion of the powder funnel producing a bell. The more the powder die is adjusted down (clockwise) the more the case will be belled.

Note: If the po

wder die is not adjusted

wn far enough to cause the po

wder bar to travel its full distance the powder c

harge will be err

atic and the case will

ycle the handle.

f the white cube has not traveled its full distance, raise the toolhead just enough to pull the case off of the powder funnel (this will prevent the shellplate from indexing while you adjust the powder die). While holding the powder measure, turn the die down 1/8 of a turn. Again lower the toolhead and observe the travel of the powder bar.

Repeat as needed until the powder

bar travels its full distance,

Fig. 52.

Once the powder bar travels fully across you should continue to adjust the powder die for the desired amount of bell (turn the powder die 1/8 of a turn at a time). The desired amount bell is just enough to allow the bullet to sit

on the case mouth without falling off and to keep the case from shaving lead d

uring the seating process - see the

illustration (above) example “B”.

Note: If you screw the die down too far, the case will look like example "C" in the illustration (right). You must then d

iscard this case, back the powder die off, by turning it counter clockwise, and c

ontinue with a new sized case.

ou’ll soon learn to judge the correct amount of bell by simply looking at it. In the meantime, you might want to use your dial calipers to check it. Twenty thousandths of an inch greater (at the mouth of the case) than its original diameter, should about do it.

Once you’ve achieved the desired amount of bell – with the case in Station 5, raise the toolhead. Run the lock ring down hand tight.

Insure the bellcrank and the return rod bolt (in the fr

ame) FIG 54 are aligned. Using a 5/32" Allen wrench, snug the collar clamp screws.

While holding the po

wder measure in place, snug the lock ring using a 1-1/8” wrench.

Station 7 - General Information on

Bullet Seating

he purpose of the seating die is to insert the bullet into the case and to push it down into the case the proper amount.

How far the bullet is pushed into the case will determine the overall length (

OAL). Several factors go into determining the proper OAL – such as, the maximum recommended OAL, listed in the reloading manual, and the type of bullet being loaded. The type of bullet can d

etermine the OAL in one of two ways.

If the bullet has what is called a cannelure, or crimping groove Fig. 55 & 56, this will determine the proper OAL. If the bullet you’re using doesn’t have a cannelure or a crimping groo

e, then you’ll need to refer to your reloading manual for the suggested O

AL.

The purpose of the cannelure and crimping groove is to secure the bullet by giving the mouth of the case a place to go (without deforming the bullet) when being crimped. When the bullet is properly seated, the mouth of the cartridge case should be near the top of the cannelure/crimping groove.

Refer to your reloading manual. Under the section specified for the caliber you’re loading, you’ll find a schematic of the cartridge. For example, .38 Special lists a maximum OAL of

1.55" (Lyman Reloading Handbook). If you’re seating the bullet to the cannelure/crimping groove, the OAL should be well within the maximum OAL listed, however, use a set of dial calipers to check it. (Dial calipers are available from Dillon Precision). If the bullet you’re using doesn’t have a cannelure/crimping

groove, refer to the specific type of bullet you’re using in the reloading manual. F

or example – if you’re loading a 158 gr. .38 Sp. JHP and it doesn’t have a cannelure/ crimping groove, use the suggested OAL of 1.480 (Lyman Reloading Handbook).

tation 7 - Installation and Adjustment

of the Seating Die

Take the seating die from the die box and screw it into Station 7. Screw the die down until the bottom of the die is flush with the bottom of the toolhead. Note: At this point the die will not be screwed down far enough to begin seat-

Fig. 55 & 56 - Shown are several examples of a cannelure or crimping groove.

Fig. 54 - Make sure the bellcrank and return rod bolt are aligned.

Please note that every die set includes seating stems to fit most common bullet types. Select the appropriate seating stem for the bullet type you are loading.

ing the bullet, but it will give you a place to start.

lace a case (with a belled case

mouth) into Station 7. Fig. 57

Place a bullet on the belled case mouth and lower the toolhead. Then, raise the toolhead just enough to inspect the bullet without indexing the s

hellplate. If the bullet is not seated deep enough, screw the seating die down 1/2 t

urn at a time. As a guide, one full turn moves the die down about 70 thousandths of an inch, about the thickness of a nickel. Again, cycle the machine and inspect the seating depth. Repeat these steps as necessary until the correct overall length is achieved. Use a dial caliper or equivalent to measure the overall length of the cartridge. Check the overall length of the round against the information in your reloading manual.

Once you have obtained the proper OAL, replace the cartridge into Station 7 and lower the toolhead. Using a 1" wrench to turn the lock ring and a 7/8" wrench to hold the die body, snug the lock ring.

Note: If you ever load a cartridge that you are unhappy with, you can use a Dillon bullet puller to reclaim your components.

Station 8 - Installation and adjustment

of the Crimp Die

Screw the crimp die into Station 8. Screw it down until it is flush with the bottom of the toolhead.

starting point for the crimp adjustment.

Place a cartridge with a properly seated bullet into Station 8.

Lower the toolhead and continue to

down 1/8 of a turn, lower the toolhead.

Raise the toolhead halfway and inspect the cartridge. If the bell is still present, or the desired amount of crimp has not been achieved, give the die a 1

/8 turn down and try again. Continue making small adjustments to your crimp d

ie until the desired amount of crimp has been achieved.

Once the adjustment is complete, place the case back into Station 8 and lower the toolhead. Using a 1" wrench to turn the lock ring and a 7/8" wrench to hold the die body, snug the lock ring.

Note: When adjusting the crimp die it is important to know what to look for. Check that the crimp: Looks OK, allows your firearm to function consistently and the bullet feels tight in the case.

RL1050 vs. Super 1050

Not all parts are the same but some are still inter

hangeable.

e have made

hanges to sev

eral parts used on the Super 1050 that are not interchangeable with the RL1050 mac

hine.

•

he Super 1050 primer lev

er assembly (#21145) has a longer arm to accommodate the higher toolhead tr

vel. This

is not av

ailable for RL 1050 mac

hines. Primer feed body (#20773) will fit both machines but again the primer lever assembly will not.

• The Super 1050 index lever has been

changed considerably and will not index properly on RL 1050 machines.

• The Super 1050 mainshaft, mainshaft pivot pin, crankshaft assembly, and b

earings are completely different.

• The casefeed body has been modified to allow long cases to feed through b

ut is interchangeable between the

uper 1050 and RL 1050 machines.

• Any RL 1050 toolhead assembly will f

it the Super 1050 machine, but the

oolhead ratchet (#11686, RL 1050)

ust be replaced with ratchet

(#11688, Super 1050).

• The toolhead spring, bushing and sleeve, as a set, are longer to accommodate the increased toolhead travel on the Super 1050 but they will work on the RL 1050.

• The RL 1050 spent primer cup has been replaced with a larger, plastic spent primer cup and bracket. It is not interchangeable.

Using RL 1050 toolheads and

dies on the Super 1050...

If you want to interchange an RL 1050

toolhead already set for a caliber you want to load onto the Super 1050 you will need to check for the following clearances.

1. Remove the toolhead assembly

from the Super 1050.

2. Replace the shellplate with the

shellplate for the caliber you intend to load with.

3. Remo

e the toolhead spring and set the toolhead onto the mainshaft while holding the handle at about mid-tr

vel for proper alignment into the frame. Next, install the washer and toolhead bolt.

4. Slowly lower the handle and look to see if any die comes in contact with the shellplate. Readjust dies as needed.

5. Place one unprimed case in the swage station and again slowly lower the handle. Readjust the expander and s

age rod as needed.

6. Once you have reset the dies to the machine, remove the toolhead and reinstall the toolhead spring and complete the rest of the conversion and set up to reload. Reinstall the toolhead.

or pin.

c.) Berdan primed cases. d.) Dirt in shellplate pockets. e.) Handle being moved too rapidly

on the down stroke.

f.) Rocks or other foreign objects in

cases.

Station 3: Primer Pocket Swaging

Problems

1.) Primers smearing or crushing: a.) Swage back-up rod not down far

enough (#13332 or #13348).

b.) Swage rod not adjusted high

enough (#20314 - large or #20313 small).

Station 4: Priming Problems

The above photo shows the rocker

arm set screw (#13226) being adjusted. T

he Super 1050 comes from the factory with this set screw properly adjusted, but over time it can move. When the rocker arm set screw is out of adjustment, it can dent primers and/or cause the primer slide to stick. When properly adjusted, the primer punc

h (#12849 large #13307 small) will be flush with the platform surface – see arrow above.

1.) Crushed primers:

a.) Swage rod (#20314 - large or #20313 - small) not adjusted correctly, dirty or w

orn out. b.) Dirt in the shellplate (#12600*). c.) Ringed primer. When a spent

primer has been pier

ced b

y the decap

ping pin leaving a ring of metal from the primer in the poc

ket.

d.) Primer station retain tab (#12930)

not adjusted correctly.

.) Worn primer punch (#12849).

.) The bench that the machine is mounted on is not rigid enough. This can be corrected by affixing a board to both the wall and your bench.

g.) Hot-loaded ammo that has been fired several times and the base of the c

ase has been flattened out.

.) High primers:

a.) Adjust the primer push rod (#12819).

b.) On .223 cases the swage back-up rod (#13332) is down too far, slightly collapsing the primer pocket and not allowing the primer to seat fully.

c.) Loose shellplate (#12600*).

d.) Erratic handle motion.

e.) Do not remove the rubber piece on the primer slide.

3.) Smeared primers - see Station 3: Primer Pocket Swaging - item 1

4.) Locator tab:

a.) When adjusting the priming station locator tab, it should be set as close to the case as possible without touching it. Be sure the cases in the shellplate rotate freely past the tab. Change primer magazine tips every 20,000 rounds. Note: Move the handle down, bringing the toolhead down. Mo

e the locator tab in to the case in

the priming station.

Station 5. Powder and Case Mouth

Belling Problems

1.) Crushing cases:

a.) Wrong size or missing locator buttons.

2.) Spilling powder:

a.) Slamming or going too fast with the operating handle (#17071).

b.) Stick or pencil-lead type powders bridging on the case mouth in the powder funnel (#13005). See con

ersion

chart.

c.) Check powder bar adjustment.

3.) Err

atic belling:

a.) Variation in case length. Divide cases b

y br

and.

b.) Handle not moving all the way down on each stroke. Note: Try setting a bullet on the case mouth in Station 6.

4.) Erratic powder charges: a.) Powder bar not moving full length

f its travel. Turn the powder die down

until it does.

Station 7: Bullet Seating Problems

1.) Erratic seating depth of the bullet: a.) Build up of lead shaving and/or

lube in the seater or crimp dies.

b.) Bullets having erratic dimension

(length and/or the ogive).

c.) Use the proper seating stem for the

type of bullet being used.

d.) Variations in case types and/or lots

– sort brass.

e.) Refer to a loading manual for prop-

er loaded length (OAL) and additional information.

Station 8: Crimping Problems

1.) Erratic crimping: a.) Length of cartridge cases erratic,

probably due to mixed brands of brass.

b.) Worn out or improperly made die,

use Dillon dies whenever possible.

2.) Loose bullet: a.) Too much taper crimp. Note, this

condition also ruins accuracy.

b. Wrong expander (#12749*). c.) Thin cases.

Maintenance

Loctite

Loctite should be used following

adjustments to or replacement of all threaded screws. Please note that Loctite should be applied to threaded portions only and should be of a non-permanent type. Blue Loctite #242 is recommended.

Swage

Clean the swage by pulling the operat-

ing handle down and use a small brush to clean the tip. Every 10,000 rounds, remove the swage rod (#20314 - large or #20313 - small). and clean, lightly grease and replace. Note: Do not grease the tip of the swage where it contacts the primer pocket.

Super 1050, May 2007 5/21/07 12:00 PM Page 20

Lubrication

perating circumstances will dictate the frequency of required lubrication. It is highly recommended that the Super 1050 be cleaned and lubed after every 10,000 rounds of operation.

Use a high-grade, conventional wheel

earing grease –

o not use oil

Lubrication Points:

• Casefeed Plunger (#13073*), lube the sides and bottom.

• Casefeed Plunger Roller (#13498) and Bolt (#13333)

• Tappet (#12995)

• Rocker Arm (#13058), cam surfaces and hole.

• Pivot Bolt (#13296)

• Primer Punc

h Base (#12849 - large or

#13307 - small)

• Lube the Indexing Lever Cam surface (#10064) and Index Lever Shoulder Bolt (#13276). With the handle in the rest position, you will see the Index Roller (#10996) come into contact with the Lever Cam surface. The Index Roller (#10996) also requires periodic lubrication.

•

Alignment Pins (#12972 & #13515

located under the toolhead)

• Cam Guide Bolt (#12486) and its mated slot

• Toolhead Bore (#20420 - lightly to avoid rusting and/or freezing up)

• Mainshaft Lubrication – Use only 30 weight motor oil. DO NOT use a penetrating lubricant such as WD-40, Breakfree, etc…

• Swage Connecting Rod (#13417) and Clevis Pin (#13522)

• Shellplate lock ring (#20311), bottom surface to shellplate face.

• Shellplate center hole. It’s easiest to lubricate the shellplate center hole when changing from one caliber to another.

e recommend that you use a droplet

of Blue Loctite on the threads of the fol

lowing bolts prior to reinstalling: #13333, #13296, and #13276 (see pho

tos and sc

hematics).

Lube Points for the Super 1050

Crank Assembly

With the handle in the rest position,

n the left side of the machine, use a grease syringe to lube the bearing pin (#11009) located in the link arm (#11063). Then, cycle the handle down t

o the bottom stop.

gain, using the grease syringe, lube the mainshaft pivot pin (#10994) on the left side of the machine via the a

ccess hole located 1.2" above the car-

rier cap (#11010).

Use 30 weight motor oil on the main-

shaft (#10999).

owards the back of the machine, lube the indexing lever cam surface (#11064) and index lever shoulder b

olt (#13276).

When it is time to lube the roller bear-

ngs (#11008) in the frame and crankshaft, first remove the swage rod assembly, swage connecting rod, and operating handle. On the left side of the machine, use a 5/32" Allen wrench to remove the s

crew (#13685). Slide the carrier cap

(

#11010) out of its bore and lube the left-hand side roller bearing (#11008) and carrier cap. Next, slide the crank-

shaft (#11061) out of the frame from the right side of the machine BUT NO MORE THAN 3/4". Using a grease syringe, dispense some grease onto the right-hand side roller bearing (#11008). Next, lube the crankshaft surface (

#11061). Then, reinsert the crankshaft fully into the frame. Reinstall the carrier cap (#11010). Blue Loctite must be used o

n the threads before installation, tighten. Finally, reassemble the swage component and operating handle back onto the frame. Lube the swage connecting rod (#13417) and clevis pin (#13522).
