Warranty AgreementThe Dillon Super 1050 reloader has been designed as a

commercial machine. Our expectation is that its lifeexpectancy will be in excess of two million rounds ofloaded ammunition. All Super 1050 machines are war-ranted for life from defects in material or workmanship,plus a one-year, 100% warranty against normal wear. Allelectrical/electronic components in Dillon equipment arecovered by a one-year warranty.

Mandatory Safety MeasuresThe reloading of ammunition and the handling of

components (gun powder and primers) is inherently dan-gerous, indeed shooting firearms is inherently dangerous.Accidents can and do occur, sometimes with disastrousresults including, but not limited to, loss of vision, hear-ing or life. These accidents are nondiscriminatory, theyoccur with both the novice and the experienced reloader.

Dillon Precision Products has consciously designedthe Super 1050 with this in mind. We’ve shielded theprimer magazine and machined clearance holes for theelimination of powder and primer residue. In short, wehave done everything we know how, to make the use ofour machine as safe as possible. We cannot however,guarantee your complete safety. In order to minimizeyour risk, use common sense when reloading and fol-low these basic rules:

Never operate the machine without ear and eye pro-tection on. Call our customer service department at(800) 223-4570 for information on the wide variety ofshooting/safety glasses and hearing protection thatDillon has to offer.• PAY ATTENTION: Load only when you can give yourcomplete attention to the loading process. Don’t watchtelevision or try to carry on a conversation and load at thesame time. Watch the automatic systems operate andmake sure they are functioning properly. If you are inter-rupted or must leave and come back to your loading,always inspect the cases at every station to insure that theproper operations have been accomplished.• SMOKING: Do not smoke while reloading or allowanyone else to smoke in your reloading area. Do notallow open flames in reloading area.• SAFETY DEVICES: Do not remove any safety devicesfrom your machine or modify your machine in any way.• LEAD WARNING: Be sure to have proper ventilationwhile handling lead components or when shooting leadbullets. Lead is known to cause birth defects, other repro-ductive harm and cancer. Wash your hands thoroughlyafter handling anything made of lead.• LOADS AND LENGTHS: Avoid maximum loads andpressures at all times. Use only recommended loadsfrom manuals and information supplied by reliablecomponent manufacturers and suppliers. Since DillonPrecision has no control over the components whichmay be used on their equipment, no responsibility isimplied or assumed for results obtained through the useof any such components.

Seat bullets as close to maximum cartridge length aspossible. Under some conditions, seating bullets exces-sively deep can raise pressures to unsafe levels. Refer to areliable loading manual for overall length (OAL).• QUALITY CHECKS: Every 50-100 rounds, performperiodic quality control checks on the ammunition beingproduced. Check the amount of powder being droppedand primer supply.• RELOADING AREA: Keep your components safelystored. Clear your work area of loose powder, primersand other flammables before loading.• COMPONENTS: Never have more than one type ofpowder in your reloading area at a time. The risk of amix-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 ofchildren.• BLACK POWDER: Do not use black powder or blackpowder substitutes in any Dillon powder measure.Loading black powder cartridges requires specializedloading equipment and techniques. Failure to do so canresult in severe injury or death.• PRIMERS: Never force primers. If they get stuck in theoperation of the machine, disassemble it and gentlyremove the obstruction.

Never attempt to clear primers that are stuck in eitherthe primer pickup tube or the primer magazine tube.Never, under any circumstances, insert any type of rod toattempt to force stuck primers out of these tubes. Tryingto force primers out of the tube will cause the primers toexplode causing serious injury or even death.

If primers get stuck in a primer magazine or pickuptube flood the tube with a penetrating oil (WD-40), throwthe tube in the garbage and call us for a free replacement.

Never attempt to deprime live primers – eventuallyone will go off. When it does it will detonate the others inthe spent primer cup. Depriming live primers is the singlemost dangerous thing you can do in reloading and cancause grave injury or death.• LOADED AMMUNITION: Properly label all of yourloaded ammunition (Date, Type of Bullet, Primer, Powder,Powder Charge, etc.).• BE PATIENT: Our loading equipment is conservativelyrated and you should have no trouble achieving the pub-lished rates with a smooth, steady hand. If somethingdoesn’t seem right, stop, look and listen. If the problem orthe solution isn’t obvious, call us. The reloading bench isno place to get into a hurry.

We have done everything we know how to make yourmachine as safe as possible. We cannot, however, guaran-tee your complete safety. To minimize your risk, use com-mon sense when reloading and follow these basic rules.• REMEMBER: If your machine does not perform to yourexpectations, or if you are having technical difficulties,give us a call.

How the Super 1050 WorksStations 1 - 8 (counterclockwise)toolhead and dies cut away for clarity

Station 1: Empty cases are automati-cally inserted into the shellplate via theelectric casefeeder.

Station 2: Here the spent cartridgecases are resized and deprimed.

Station 3: This station is totallyunique. The case is supported from theinside and slightly expanded (notbelled) while simultaneously a swageris driven into the primer pocket toremove any crimp.

Station 4: A new primer is installedat this station. The spring drivenprimer slide is extremely smooth. Thesteel shrouded primer magazine iscapped with an electronic EarlyWarning Device to let you knowwhen you’re down to approximatelythree primers.

Station 5: Here the case is belledand powder is dropped by the case-activated powder measure. It isextremely accurate and will not droppowder unless a case is present. DillonPrecision offers an optional accessory tobe utilized with the automatic powdermeasure at this station – Dillon’s LowPowder Sensor provides an audible andvisual reminder when it’s time to refillthe powder reservoir.

Station 6: This station is open toallow for case inspection.

Station 7: The bullet is seated to itsproper depth at this station.

Station 8: In this station, the bullet iscrimped into place. The cartridge isthen automatically ejected into a collec-tion bin.

Your dies have been adjusted at thefactory. Before you change anything, tryit the way it is, once you thoroughlyunderstand the machine’s operation,make whatever adjustments to the diesyou feel necessary.

Reminder: There may be some varia-tion due to components.

Super 1050 AssemblyYour new Super 1050 has been

assembled at the factory. All of theadjustments necessary to reload havealready been made, in fact we’veeven adjusted the dies to reload thecaliber you have chosen. However,before you can reload you must dosome minor assembly.

Due to variations in components,check all stations for proper settingsbefore loading ammunition. It isabsolutely necessary that you read thefollowing instructions.

If you get stuck on something thatyou 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 freefrom vibration and is strong enough tosupport your Super 1050’s mass andoperating force. If possible, attach yourbench to the wall using screws.

Remove the Super 1050 main framefrom the packaging and place it onyour selected area. The crank exten-sion (#11000) should be to your right.Bring the machine to the forward edgeof your bench – be sure to allow clear-ance for operation of the handle. Markthe four mounting holes using themachine as a template. Remove themachine and drill four 1/4” holesthrough the bench. Replace themachine and bolt securely. Fig. 1

Install the handle (#12727) as indicat-ed in the parts schematic. Secure inplace with the handle set screw(#13432). Fig. 2 You will note that thereare three different positions for mount-ing the operating handle. Choose theone that feels best for you. The longerthe handle, the less force required butthe stroke is longer.

The toolhead (#20420) is held downon the main frame for shipping by theuse of plastic ties. Remove the tieswhile holding the handle.

Slowly move the handle up. This willmove the toolhead approximately threeinches to its “up” position. Note: If thehandle is not moving freely, carefullyinspect for shipping damage.

Install the six brass locator buttons(#20637*) around the shellplate(#12600*). Fig. 4

Step 2: Installing the CasefeedAssembly

Using the screw provided (#13377)install the bin bracket (#13238). Fig. 5

Install the bullet bin bracket(#12144) to the casefeed post (#20641)using the screw (#13685) as shown inthe schematic on page 30.

Screw the casefeed post studs(#13271) to the main frame (placethe washer provided on the bottompost only), tighten securely with anAllen wrench through the cross holeprovided.

Fig. 1 - Be sure the machine is to the for-ward edge of the table or bench when mark-ing the four holes to be drilled.

Fig. 2 - Note that there are three differentpositions for mounting the operating handle.

Fig. 3 - Be sure to hold the operating handlein place while cutting the plastic ties.

Fig. 4 - Locator button being inserted intoits proper position.

Fig. 5 - See the schematic on page 30 formore details.

The casefeed mounting post assem-bly (#20641) is attached to the case-feed post studs (#13271) by the use oftwo post bolts (#13205). Attach thepower cable and clamp and bin brack-et (#12144) as shown in the schematicon page 30. Fig. 6

The casefeed bowl assembly needsto be placed on the casefeed post withthe Dillon logo and the on/off switchfacing you.

The casefeed tube (#13761) shouldnow be inserted into the casefeedadapter (#13654*) Fig. 7 Note thatthe tube is marked “up” on one end.Press this end into the tube clip(#13859) attached to the casefeedermotor housing Fig. 8. This assemblyis now complete.

Step 3: Installing the Powder Measure

Remove the blue cap from the pow-der die (#20320) and loosely clamp thepowder measure in position. Fig. 9Install the powder measure return rod(#13960) through the 3/8” eyebolt(#13089) mounted on the left rear of themain frame. Fig. 10 Now attach the rodto the powder measure bellcrank usingthe clip. Fig. 10 Install the spring(#14033) and wing nut (#13799) on therod and screw the wing nut up untilyou feel light tension on the spring.Tighten the powder measure clampscrews (#14037).

Step 4: Installing the Spent PrimerCup and Bullet Bin

Install the spent primer cup (#13650)on the right side as shown on theschematic on page 27. Fig. 11

Hook the bullet bin (#13756) and thecollection bin (#13484) on to theirrespective brackets. Fig. 12

Step 5: Cycling the Machine

At this point your assembly shouldbe complete. Gently pull the operatinghandle towards you, make a full stroketo the bottom and up again. Theshellplate should be indexing and theprimer slide (#20318*) should function.The casefeed plunger (#13073*) should

travel forward to the shellplate. Makesure that you repeat this several timesto gain an understanding of the variousfunctions of the machine before youstart reloading. Fig. 13

Now plug in the casefeed motor andactivate the switch. The casefeed plateshould turn smoothly within the case-feed bowl.

Assuming that all is well, proceedwith components.

Loading ComponentsYour Super 1050 is equipped with a

cartridge activated powder measurethat will dispense powder only when acartridge is in Station 5.

It is important to understand thatthe adjustable powder bar shouldreach the end of its travel at the sametime that the handle reaches the bot-tom of its stroke against the framestop. Fig. 14 To achieve this adjust-ment, the die body must be screwedup or down as needed.

The powder die has already beenadjusted at the factory. An empty casemust be placed in the shellplate atStation 5 in order to check this adjust-ment. Note that the case used to adjustthe powder measure die must alreadybe sized.

NOTE: If you are adjusting for astraight wall case, start your powder dieadjustment with the die obviously too highand work down. This will avoid overbelling the case.

If you are adjusting a case with a shoul-der, such as a .223, do not turn the diedown too far or the shoulder will buckle.

Use a reloading manual to deter-mine how much powder you need fora particular load and an accurate pow-der scale to determine the weight.Caution: While you do not have to usea Dillon Precision powder scale, youshould use a scale of equal quality. Donot use scales with plastic frames or“razor blade” pivots. Quality scaleshave jeweled pivot points. Razorblade pivots can dig into the frame ofthe scale and give dangerously inaccu-rate readings.

Powder Measure Adjustments

In Station 5 we adjust the powdermeasure. It works like this: screw thepowder die into the toolhead and insertthe pistol powder funnel expander or arifle powder funnel with the groovedend toward the top of the powder die.Fig. 15 The funnel should move freelyin the die, leaving a loose fit betweenthe top of the die and the powdermeasure collar. This will enable you toadjust the die to give you a bell on themouth of your pistol cases making iteasier to start the bullet.

On rifle cases, the die should beadjusted so that the powder funnel willcontact the mouth of the case and thenfully actuate the powder bar. Theseadjustments are accomplished with asized case in the shellplate and alter-nately raising and lowing the operatinghandle while adjusting the powder die.

When properly adjusted, the powderbar will be moved to the end of its trav-el by the cartridge case Fig. 14.

Fig. 12 - Shown is the proper location ofthe cartridge collection bin. Note: the bul-let bin is replaced by the optional bullettray in this photo.

When you have determined thatyour adjustments are correct, tightenthe lock ring (#14067). Fig. 16

Powder Bar Return Rod AssemblyThe purpose of the powder bar

return rod is to return the powder barto its closed position.

Remove the blue cap from the pow-der die (#20320) and loosely clamp thepowder measure in position.

To install the powder bar return rod(#13960) remove the blue wing nut(#13799) and rod spring (#14033) fromthe rod, then insert the bottom endthrough the 3/8” eyebolt (#13089) thatis mounted on the left rear of the mainframe.

Next, using your thumb and indexfinger of your left hand, move the lock-link down and align the hole with theslot on the bellcrank. Then, insert therod through the two holes and insertthe return rod clip (#13929). Fig. 17

Install the spring (#14033) and wingnut (#13799) on the rod and screw thewing nut up until you feel light tensionon the spring. Fig. 18 Tighten the pow-der measure clamp screws (#14037).

You will notice an adjusting bolt onthe front of the powder bar. Counter-clockwise reduces the powder charge,clockwise increases the charge. Fig. 19

Your machine comes with two pow-der bars. Fig. 20 One large (#20063)

and one small (#20062). Rule of thumb:Use the large bar whenever possible.

Index a sized and primed case underthe measure and operate the machine’shandle. Turning the powder bar adjust-ment bolt clockwise increases the pow-der charge – counterclockwise turnsdecreases the powder charge. By trialand error, determine the correct weightof your powder charge by using a pow-der scale. Fig. 19

When the correct powder chargehad been set, cycle several casesthrough the machine and check theload with a scale.

Primer MagazineSelect the proper size primer pick-up

tube and fill it by placing the plastic tipover loose primers and pressing down.

You will notice that the primer maga-zines and primer pick-up tubes havedifferent colored tips. They have beencolor coded to help you identify sizemore easily.

The color code is as follows:Blue Small Primer Magazine

OrificeRed Large Primer Magazine

OrificeYellow Small Primer Pick-up TubeGreen Large Primer Pick-up Tube

The shiny side of the primers shouldbe facing up. This is most easily accom-plished by use of a primer flip tray. Fig.21 This quality cast metal flip tray isavailable from Dillon Precision and is abetter choice than the smaller plastictrays which are difficult to use andhave a tendency to warp.

Fig. 16 - Be sure to tighten the lock ringwhen adjustments are completed.

Fig. 17 - Install the return rod clip to securethe powder bar return rod. See the schemat-ic on page 31 for more details.

Once you’ve filled the pick-up tube,make sure the little retaining clip is inplace at the top of the tube. Fig. 22Pivot the switch lever (#13864) awayfrom the Early Warning System hous-ing and invert the pick-up tube overthe primer shield cap (#13957). Youwill notice the cap has a bevel to helpyou funnel the primers in. Hold thetube in place as shown in Fig. 22, pullthe retaining pin and allow theprimers to drop into the magazine.Pivot the switch the lever back overthe Early Warning System housing.Gently slide the follower rod downthrough the switch lever and into theprimer magazine tube. When you arenearly out of primers, approximatelythree remaining, the follower will acti-vate the buzzer.

The Electric Casefeeder

Use only clean cartridge cases thathave been inspected for any potentialproblems; split cases, rocks or smaller

caliber cartridges that may be hidden inlarger caliber cartridges. Fig 23Warning: Be sure that no loaded roundsare mixed with your empty cases. It ispossible to feed a blunt nosed cartridgelike a .38 Sp. WC into the shellplateupside down and explode it when it ishit by the decap pin.

Now fill the casefeed bowl withapproximately 500 pistol cases or about350 rifle cases. Fig 24

Your Super 1050 is now charged withcomponents and ready to go, but beforeyou start reloading, read the followingexplanation of the sequence of the eightreloading stations and the processesthat are done at each station.

Review: How the Super1050 Works

Stations 1 - 8 (counterclockwise)Station 1: Empty cases are automati-

cally inserted into the shellplate via theelectric casefeeder.

Station 2: Here the spent cartridgecases are resized and deprimed.

Station 3: This station is totallyunique. The case is supported from theinside and slightly expanded (notbelled) while simultaneously a swageris driven into the primer pocket toremove any crimp.

Station 4: A new primer is installedat this station. The spring drivenprimer slide is extremely smooth. Thesteel shrouded primer magazine iscapped with an electronic EarlyWarning Device to let you knowwhen you’re down to approximatelythree primers.

Station 5: Here the case is belledand powder is dropped by the case-activated powder measure. It isextremely accurate and will not droppowder unless a case is present. DillonPrecision offers an optional accessory tobe utilized with the automatic powdermeasure at this station – Dillon’s LowPowder Sensor provides an audible andvisual reminder when it’s time to refillthe powder reservoir.

Station 6: This station is open toallow for case inspection.

Station 7: The bullet is seated to itsproper depth at this station.

Station 8: In this station, the bullet iscrimped into place. The cartridge isthen automatically ejected into a collec-tion bin.

As stated earlier, your dies havebeen adjusted at the factory. Beforeyou change anything, try it the way itis, once you thoroughly understandthe machine’s operation, make what-ever adjustments to the dies you feelnecessary.

Reminder: There may be some varia-tion due to components.

To Begin ReloadingTurn on the switch on the front of the

casefeed motor housing. The casefeederplate should begin to turn. Cases willbegin to dispense, base down, into theclear plastic casefeed tube. The motor

will continue to run until the tube isfull, at which point a micro-switch willtemporarily stop the case flow.

From this point the casefeeder willautomatically fill the tube as youreload. If the casefeeder does not func-tion properly or the cases do not fallbase down, refer to the TroubleShooting section of this manual.

Pull the operating handle smoothlyto the bottom stop, then raise the han-dle, a case has been fed to Station 1.Cycle the handle again, strive to besmooth in your operation.

The first case should be indexed toStation 2. Cycle the handle again.

It is not necessary to apply any forceon the upstroke of the handle. All youare doing on the upstroke is indexingthe shellplate. Remember that primingis done on the down stroke. A slowmeasured upstroke gives you lots oftime to pick up the next bullet and

ready it for seating. If you count onesecond down, and one second up,you’ll have a good pace.

The first case should now be inStation 3 with a case in Stations 1 & 2as well. Cycle the handle again. Thecase is swaged and expanded at Station3. Observe the swage operating part(#20314*), if the swage is proper, pro-ceed – if not see items 3 and 4 in theTrouble Shooting section of this manu-al. Cycle the handle again and the casegets primed at Station 4.

If the primer is not seated properly(too high or too deep) you will need toadjust the primer push rod (#12819).Clockwise turns of the primer push rodwill cause the primer to be seated deep-er while counterclockwise turns willseat the primer higher.

The first case in the sequenceshould now be primed and at Station

5. Remove the locator button(#20637*), extract the round and checkthe primer. If everything looks okay,replace the case and button and pro-ceed. However, if the primer is notseated properly (too high or too deep)you will need to adjust the primer pushrod (#12819). Clockwise turns of theprimer push rod will cause the primerto be seated deeper while counterclock-wise turns will seat the primer higher.

Cycle the handle again, the automat-ic powder measure will drop the chargeyou’ve selected. Pistol casemouths willbe belled at this time. Look through theinspection hole in Station 6 – youshould be able to see your powdercharge in the case.

Cycle the handle again. Now, withyour left hand, place a bullet on thepowder-charged case at Station 7 andcycle the handle. Your bullet will beseated to its proper depth, if not, a sim-

ple height adjustment to the seatingstem may be necessary. Refer to a load-ing manual for proper loaded length(OAL). Cycle the handle again andcheck for crimp at Station 8. Refer toTrouble Shooting item 8 for adjust-ments if necessary. Add a bullet, cycleagain. Your first loaded round shouldnow be ejected into the collection bin.

If all has gone well to this pointyou’ve got it made. Just keep addingbullets, watch your fingers so theydon’t get caught and don’t hurry. Justtry to be smooth in your operation. Thespeed will come naturally and you’ll bedoing a thousand rounds per hourbefore you even realize it.

The following are some adjustmentsuggestions as well as TroubleShooting hints.

Adjustments

CasefeederIt may be necessary to readjust the

micro-switch for different calibers.Cases may become lodged betweenthe micro-switch and the tube wall.The other extreme is the case failing toput enough pressure on the micro-switch to shut off the system causingit to continue running and over flow-ing the tube. Fig. 26

The casefeed spacer (#13703) sup-plied in the accessory package, is tobe used when you are reloading .41Mag, .44 Mag, .357 Mag, .30 Carbine,or .45 Colt.

Remove the two clutch screws(#13732), lock washer (#13813) andupper clutch (#13632) and the case-feed plate. Place the spacer on theshoulder of the lower clutch andreassemble – see the schematic onpage 31 for more details. The casefeedplate should now be approximately1/8” above the floor of the casefeedbowl. Note: Make sure the casefeedplate is centered in the bowl. Fig. 27

HandleThe operating handle is adjustable to

three different length settings. Choosethe one most comfortable for youroperation. Loosen the set screw(#13432) then retighten when the han-dle is in the most comfortable position.

SwagerSwaging on the Super 1050 is a sim-

ple process and is necessary on all car-tridge cases as a means of uniformingthe entrance of the primer pocket. Fig.29 The swage rod (#20314 large or#20313 - small) is fully adjustable.

Swage Conversion andAdjustment Conversion – Fig. 30

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 halfturn and remove it. This will allow youaccess to the swager. Pull the swagerdown and out of the machine. Fig. 30

Swage AdjustmentsUse ONLY an unswaged military

case for these adjustments.

With the handle in the down posi-tion, screw the swage back-upexpander down until it makes contactwith the case bottom and holds it inplace. Fig. 31

With the handle still in the downposition, turn the swage rod up until itmakes contact with the case bottom.

Raise the handle half-way and rotatethe swage rod a quarter turn. Now,cycle the handle. Inspect the case andwhen you achieve a completed swageof the primer pocket, tighten the swagelock nut (#14067).

A properly swaged pocket willshow a rounded edge around the rim.Some military cases (.223 & .308) startout with three small dents around thebase of the pocket, once properlyswaged, the dents will no longer bevisible. Fig. 32

Primer System Change OverInstructions

The Super 1050 has been shipped toyou with either the large or small

primer system installed. To change thesystem from large to small or viseversa, follow these instructions:

Be sure all primers have beenremoved from the primer system. Thenremove the Early Warning System andthe knurled cap. Then remove theprimer magazine (#22031 - large or#22030 - small) and replace it with thenew size magazine. Be sure the key onthe tip (#14003 - large or #14024 -small) is in the slot and the magazine isall the way down in place. Fig. 33

Pull the operating handle to its downposition.

Loosen the lever arm bracket screw(#14037) and slide the bracket assem-bly up four inches and lock it inplace. Fig. 34

Raise the operating handle, removethe two primer feed body screws(#13363) and lift off the primer feedbody assembly (#20773).

Remove the powder bar return rod(#13960) from the powder measurebellcrank (#17839) by releasing thereturn rod clip (#13929). Fig. 35

Now remove the shellplate locknut (#13425) by loosening the fourlocator tab screws (#13895) about fourfull turns. Fig. 37

Loosen the ejector tab screw(#13896) and swing the ejector tab(#13189) out of the way. Fig. 38 Next,slide the casefeed plunger (#13073*)back and remove the shellplate.

Rotate the primer slide stop (#13108)90˚. This will allow you to remove, and

replace, the primer slide (#20318 - largeor #20317 - small). Fig. 39

Next, remove the bushing (#13031 -large or #13222 - small); spring(#13858) and punch (#12849 - large or#13307 - small) and replace them withthe parts for your new primer size.Note that there is a specially designedscrewdriver supplied for the bushing(included in the accessory bag). Fig. 40

You should clean your machine atthis time. Fig. 41

Prior to installation, lube the base ofthe primer punch. Now adjust yournew punch (#12849 - large or #13307 -small) so that it is flush with the bush-ing (#13031 - large or #13222 - small) byturning set screw (#13226) up or down.If the primer punch is too low, dirt willcollect on top of it leaving imprints onyour primers. If it is too high it willbind the slide. Note: You can use theslide for a guide. Slide it back and forthover the bushing to check your adjust-ments. See the schematic on page 29 orthe trouble shooting section for addi-tional information.

Loosen the four locator tab screws(#13895) about four full turns. Fig. 37

Use a toothbrush to remove anypowder that may be in the threadsbefore removing the lock ring.

Next remove the lock ring (#20311).Now push the casefeed plunger back(#13073*) and lift the shellplate off. Besure to lightly grease the bore of theshellplate when reinstalling it. Fig. 44

Rule of thumb: turn the lock ringdown until tight then back off one-eighth of a turn. Then tighten the fourlocator tab screws (#13895).

Casefeed Plunger ConversionWhen changing calibers it may be

necessary to replace the casefeedplunger (#13073*).

To do this, remove the clear casefeedtube (#13761) and pull out the coloredcasefeed adapter (#13654*). The adapteris taped for shipping purposes.

Remove the two housing screws(#13815) and the casefeed adapterhousing (#11006).

Place your hand on the plungerwhile removing the roller bolt (#13333).This will prevent the casefeed plungerand spring from jumping out of themachine. Fig. 45

Thoroughly clean the track andcasefeed parts with a solvent. Nowvery lightly apply grease to the sidesand install the proper size casefeedplunger (#13073*). Fig. 46 Rememberto grease the roller (#13498) and theroller track (Fig. 46) and Loctite thethreads on the roller bolt (#13333).

Install the casefeed housing andinsert the proper size adapter (#13654*).The casefeed tube (#13761) should nowbe inserted into the casefeed adapter(#13654*). Note that the tube is marked“up” on one end. Press this end into thetube clip (#13859). See the TroubleShooting section for any adjustments.

Die AdjustmentsStation 2 - To install the size/decap die

Warning: Never attempt to deprimelive primers, an explosion may result.

Move the toolhead down, by lower-ing the handle all the way down.

Screw the sizing die into Station 2.Continue to screw the die down until itjust touches the shellplate. Fig. 47Tighten the die lock ring finger tight.Now move the toolhead up by raisingthe handle to its upright position.

Note: When loading .270 or .30-06you need to raise the decap assemblyso that the hitch pin clip is a minimumof 1/8” above the silver lock ring asshown in Fig. 47.

Place a case in the casefeed funnel.Here, the case drops to the casefeedplunger.

Cycle the handle. The casefeed campushes the roller bushing back, drop-ping the case into the slot of theplunger.

Cycle the handle. The case is insertedinto the shellplate.

Note: After raising the handle,insure that you push the handleagainst its full aft stop. This willinsure that the shellplate fullyadvanced to the next station.

Note: When priming, pushing thehandle against its stop, will insure thatthe primer is fully seated.

Again, move the toolhead down.The case is now sized. If the case has aspent primer, it will be deprimed.Leave the toolhead in this positionwith the case fully inserted in the die.Fig. 48 This will ensure that the dieremains in alignment when tighteningthe lock ring.

Using a 1-1/8" wrench to turn thelock ring and a 7/8" wrench to hold thedie body, tighten the lock ring.

Station 3 - Adjustment of theExpander Die

Install the expander die (caliberspecific) at Station 3. Place a case inStation 2 and cycle the operating han-dle once (sending the case to Station3). Turn the expander die down untilyou feel it make contact with the caseand cycle the operating handle. Makeadjustments in one-quarter turnincrements until the desired expan-sion of the case mouth is achieved.Tighten the die lock ring.

A properly expanded case shouldshow a slight flare at the case mouth.Fig. 49

Station 5 - Adjustment of the PowderDie/Powder Funnel

Note: Adjusting the powder die fora straight wall case is not the same asadjusting a powder die for a bottle-necked case. This is because straightwall cases are given a bell and bottle-necked cases are not given a bell.

For the powder bar to properly dis-pense a measured powder charge, thepowder bar must travel its full dis-tance. To travel its full distance, the

white cube must contact the powdermeasure body (see arrow FIG 51).

Also the belling process does notbegin until after the powder bar hastraveled its full distance. The angledportion on the bottom of the powderfunnel (Fig. 52) is what bells the car-tridge. Once the white cube has con-tacted the powder measure body thecase is forced upward against thetapered portion of the powder funnelproducing a bell. The more the powderdie is adjusted down (clockwise) themore the case will be belled.

Note: If the powder die is not adjust-ed down far enough to cause the pow-der bar to travel its full distance thepowder charge will be erratic and thecase will not receive enough bell.

Station 5 - Adjustment of the PowderDie/Powder Funnel Cont...

Drop a case into the casefeed funneland cycle the handle twice. The caseshould now be in the shellplate atStation 2.

Move the handle down. Notice theresistance at the end of the downstroke. This is the resistance of the casein the sizing die. Raise the handle. Thecase will index to Station 3.

Cycle the handle to advance the caseto Station 4. Again, cycle the handle toprime the case and index it to Station 5.

Cycle the handle.If the white cube has not traveled

its full distance, raise the toolhead justenough to pull the case off of the pow-der funnel (this will prevent theshellplate from indexing while youadjust the powder die). While holdingthe powder measure, turn the diedown 1/8 of a turn. Again lower thetoolhead and observe the travel of thepowder bar.

Repeat as needed until the powderbar travels its full distance, Fig. 51.

Once the powder bar travels fullyacross you should continue to adjustthe powder die for the desired amountof bell (turn the powder die 1/8 of aturn at a time). The desired amountbell is just enough to allow the bulletto sit on the case mouth withoutfalling off and to keep the case fromshaving lead during the seatingprocess - see the illustration (right)example “B”.

Note: If you screw the die down toofar, the case will look like example "C"in the illustration (right). You must thendiscard this case, back the powder dieoff, by turning it counter-clockwise,and continue with a new sized case.

You’ll soon learn to judge the correctamount of bell by simply looking at it.In the meantime, you might want touse your dial calipers to check it.Twenty thousandths of an inch greater(at the mouth of the case) than its origi-nal diameter, should about do it.

Once you’ve achieved the desiredamount of bell – with the case inStation 5, raise the toolhead. Run thelock ring down hand tight. Insure the bellcrank and the return

rod bolt (in the frame) FIG 53 arealigned. Using a 5/32" Allen wrench,snug the collar clamp screws.

While holding the powder measurein place, snug the lock ring using a 1-1/8” wrench.

Station 7 - General Information onBullet Seating

The purpose of the seating die is toinsert the bullet into the case and topush it down into the case the properamount.

How far the bullet is pushed intothe case will determine the overalllength (OAL). Several factors go intodetermining the proper OAL – such as,the maximum recommended OAL,listed in the reloading manual, and thetype of bullet being loaded. The typeof bullet can determine the OAL in oneof two ways.

If the bullet has what is called a can-nelure, or crimping groove Fig. 54 &55, this will determine the properOAL. If the bullet you’re using doesn’thave a cannelure or a crimping groove,then you’ll need to refer to yourreloading manual for the suggestedOAL. The purpose of the cannelureand crimping groove is to secure thebullet by giving the mouth of the casea place to go (without deforming thebullet) when being crimped. When thebullet is properly seated, the mouth ofthe cartridge case should be near thetop of the cannelure/crimping groove.

Refer to your reloading manual.Under the section specified for the cal-iber you’re loading, you’ll find a

schematic of the cartridge. For example,.38 Special lists a maximum OAL of1.55" (Lyman Reloading Handbook). Ifyou’re seating the bullet to the can-nelure/crimping groove, the OALshould be well within the maximumOAL listed, however, use a set of dialcalipers to check it. (Dial calipers areavailable from Dillon Precision). If thebullet you’re using doesn’t have a can-nelure/crimping groove, refer to thespecific type of bullet you’re using inthe reloading manual. For example – ifyou’re loading a 158 gr. .38 Sp. JHPand it doesn’t have a cannelure/ crimp-ing groove, use the suggested OAL of1.480 (Lyman Reloading Handbook).

Station 7 - Installation andAdjustment of the Seating Die

Take the seating die from the die boxand screw it into Station 7. Screw thedie down until the bottom of the die isflush with the bottom of the toolhead.Note: At this point the die will not bescrewed down far enough to beginseating the bullet, but it will give you aplace to start.

Place a case (with a belled casemouth) into Station 7. Fig. 56

Place a bullet on the belled casemouth and lower the toolhead. Then,raise the toolhead just enough toinspect the bullet without indexing theshellplate. If the bullet is not seateddeep enough, screw the seating diedown 1/2 turn at a time. As a guide,one full turn moves the die down about70 thousandths of an inch, about thethickness of a nickel. Again, cycle themachine and inspect the seating depth.Repeat these steps as necessary untilthe correct overall length is achieved.Use a dial caliper or equivalent tomeasure the overall length of the car-tridge. Check the overall length of theround against the information in yourreloading manual.

Once you have obtained the properOAL, replace the cartridge into Station7 and lower the toolhead. Using a 1-1/8" wrench to turn the lock ring and a7/8" wrench to hold the die body, snugthe lock ring.

Note: If you ever load a cartridgethat you are unhappy with, you can usea Dillon bullet puller to reclaim yourcomponents.Station 8 - Installation and adjustment

of the Crimp DieScrew the crimp die into Station 8.

Screw it down until it is flush with thebottom of the toolhead. This is a goodstarting point for the crimp adjustment.

Place a cartridge with a properlyseated bullet into Station 8.

Lower the toolhead and continue toscrew the die down until it touches thecartridge. Fig. 57

Raise the toolhead and screw the diedown 1/8 of a turn, lower the toolhead.

Raise the toolhead half-way andinspect the cartridge. If the bell is stillpresent, or the desired amount of crimphas not been achieved, give the die a1/8 turn down and try again. Continuemaking small adjustments to yourcrimp die until the desired amount ofcrimp has been achieved.

Once the adjustment is complete,place the case back into Station 8 andlower the toolhead. Using a 1-1/8"wrench to turn the lock ring and a7/8" wrench to hold the die body,snug the lock ring.

Note: When adjusting the crimp dieit is important to know what to look for.Check that the crimp: Looks OK, allowsyour firearm to function consistentlyand the bullet feels tight in the case.

The drawing of case #3 (above) is adepiction of a case that has been overcrimped by adjusting the crimp diedown (clockwise) too far. Note the

RL1050 vs. Super 1050Not all parts are the same but some

are still interchangeable. We have madechanges to several parts used on theSuper 1050 that are not interchangeablewith the RL1050 machine.• The Super 1050 primer lever assem-

bly (#) has a longer arm to accommo-date the higher toolhead travel. Thisis not available for RL 1050machines. Primer feed body (#20773)will fit both machines but again theprimer lever assembly will not.

• The Super 1050 assembly does notinclude the ratchet cam, ratchetrestriction tab and related parts.

• The Super 1050 index lever has beenshortened considerably and will notindex properly on RL 1050 machines.

• The Super 1050 index roller haschanged in diameter and is much toolarge for the RL 1050.

• The Super 1050 mainshaft, main-shaft pivot pin, crankshaft assem-bly, and bearings are completelydifferent.

• The casefeed body has been modifiedto allow long cases to feed throughbut is interchangeable between theSuper 1050 and RL 1050 machines.

• Any RL 1050 toolhead assembly willfit the Super 1050 machine. You willneed to remove the ratchet cam fromthe toolhead and install a 1/8” thickwasher or spacer in its place. Thenreinstall the cam guide bolt.

• The toolhead spring and sleeve, as aset, are longer to accommodate theincreased toolhead travel on theSuper 1050 but they will work onthe RL 1050.

• Any RL 1050 shellplate will fit onthe Super 1050 with one exception.The #1 shellplate for .45 ACP hastight fitting pockets and may ormay not allow .308 Winchester casesto feed into the shellplate freely. Allnew #1 shellplates have a star nextto the number one to indicate therevised version.

• The Super 1050 indexer return spring

• The RL 1050 spent primer cup hasbeen replaced with a larger, plasticspent primer cup and bracket. It isnot interchangeable.

Using RL 1050 toolheads anddies on the Super 1050...

If you want to interchange an RL1050 toolhead already set for a caliberyou want to load onto the Super 1050you will need to check for the followingclearances.

1. Remove the toolhead assemblyfrom the Super 1050.

2. Replace the shellplate with theshellplate for the caliber you intend toload with.

3. Remove the toolhead spring andset the toolhead onto the mainshaftwhile holding the handle at about mid-travel for proper alignment into theframe. Next, install the washer andtoolhead bolt.

4. Slowly lower the handle and lookto see if any die comes in contact withthe shellplate. Readjust dies as needed.

5. Place one unprimed case in theswage station and again slowly lowerthe handle. Readjust the expander andswage rod as needed.

6. Once you have reset the dies to themachine, remove the toolhead and rein-stall the toolhead spring and completethe rest of the conversion and set up toreload. Reinstall the toolhead.

Trouble Shooting .308 Winchester and related calibers

with similar case length (.243 and/or.22-250) also lend themselves to reload-ing on this new machine. No specialchanges are necessary to the die set.

Hard or Incomplete Indexing1.) Wrong size locator buttons(#20637*).

2.) Index pawl bent or worn (#13705).

3.) Shellplate lock ring adjusted tootightly (#20311).

4.) Dirt under the shellplate (#12600*).

5.) Bent or broken shellplate (#12600*).

6.) Ejector tab (#13189) interfering withthe shellplate - see above photo.

Station 1: Case Insertion Problems1.) Wrong size case insert plunger(#13073*).

2.) Wrong case insert adapter (#13654*).

3.) Shellplate lock ring not adjustedtight enough.

4.) Dirt in the shellplate (#12600*) pock-ets or damaged shellplate.

5.) Handle being moved too rapidly onupstroke.

6.) Bent or broken roller bolt (#13333).

7.) Dirt or media in casefeed track.

Station 2: Resizing andDecapping Problems

With .30-06 and .270 calibers it isimportant to note that the seater andcrimp dies must be shortened for clear-ance reasons. They are available andare included with the respective con-version kits.

1.) Crushed cases:a.) Shellplate lock ring too loose or

too tight. b.) Not enough radius on the die.

Use Dillon dies whenever possible.c.) Wrong size or missing locator but-

tons.

2.) Bending or breaking decapping pins:a.) Wrong shellplate (#12600*).b.) Slightly bent decapping assembly

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

Problems1.) Primers smearing or crushing:

a.) Swage back-up rod not down farenough (#13332 or #13348).

b.) Swage rod not adjusted highenough (#20314 - large or #20313 -small).

Station 4: Priming Problems

The above photo shows the rockerarm set screw (#13226) being adjusted.The Super 1050 comes from the factorywith this set screw properly adjusted,but over time it can move. When therocker arm set screw is out of adjust-ment, it can dent primers and/or causethe primer slide to stick. When proper-ly adjusted, the primer punch (#12849large - #13307 small) will be flush withthe platform surface – see arrow above.1.) Crushed primers:

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

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

primer has been pierced by the decap-ping pin leaving a ring of metal fromthe primer in the pocket.

d.) Primer station locator button(#20637*) not adjusted correctly.

e.) Worn primer punch (#12849).f.) The bench that the machine is

mounted on is not rigid enough. Thiscan be corrected by affixing a board toboth the wall and your bench.

g.) Hot-loaded ammo that has beenfired several times and the base of the

case has been flattened out.

2.) High primers:a.) Adjust the primer push rod

(#12819).b.) On .223 cases the swage back-up

rod (#13332) is down too far, slightlycollapsing the primer pocket and notallowing 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 sta-

tion locator tab, it should be set asclose to the case as possible withouttouching it. Be sure the cases in theshellplate rotate freely past the tab.Change primer magazine tips every20,000 rounds. Note: Move the handledown, bringing the toolhead down.Move the locator tab in to the case inthe priming station.

Station 5. Powder and Case MouthBelling Problems

1.) Crushing cases:a.) Wrong size or missing locator

buttons.

2.) Spilling powder:a.) Slamming or going too fast with

the operating handle (#12727).b.) Stick or pencil-lead type pow-

ders bridging on the case mouth in thepowder funnel (#13005). See conver-sion chart.

c.) Check powder bar adjustment.

3.) Erratic belling:a.) Variation in case length. Divide

cases by brand.b.) Handle not moving all the way

down on each stroke. Note: Try settinga bullet on the case mouth in Station 6.

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

length of its travel. Turn the powder diedown until it does.

Station 7: Bullet Seating Problems1.) Erratic seating depth of the bullet:

a.) Build up of lead shaving and/orlube 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

proper loaded length (OAL) and addi-tional information.

Station 8: Crimping Problems1.) Erratic crimping:

a.) Length of cartridge cases erratic,probably due to mixed brands of brass.

b.) Worn out or improperly madedie, 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.

MaintenanceLoctite

Loctite should be used followingadjustments to or replacement of allthreaded screws. Please note thatLoctite should be applied to threadedportions only and should be of a non-permanent type. Blue Loctite #242 isrecommended.

SwageClean the swage by pulling the oper-

ating handle down and use a smallbrush to clean the tip. Every 10,000rounds, remove the swage rod (#20314- large or #20313 - small). and clean,lightly grease and replace. Note: Do notgrease the tip of the swage where itcontacts the primer pocket.

the frequency of required lubrication. Itis highly recommended that the Super1050 be cleaned and lubed after every10,000 rounds of operation.

Use a high-grade, conventionalwheel bearing grease – do not use oil.

Lubrication Points:

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

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

• Tappet (#12995)• Rocker Arm (#13058), cam surfaces

and hole.• Pivot Bolt (#13296)• Primer Punch Base (#12849 - large or

#13307 - small)

• Lube the Indexing Lever Cam sur-face (#20312) and Index LeverShoulder Bolt (#13276). With thehandle in the rest position, you willsee the Index Roller (#10996) comeinto contact with the Lever Cam sur-face. The Index Roller (#10996) alsorequires periodic lubrication.

• Alignment Pins (#12972 & #13515located under the toolhead)

• Cam Guide Bolt (#12486) and itsmated slot

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

• Mainshaft Lubrication – Use only30 weight motor oil. DO NOT use apenetrating lubricant such as WD-40, Breakfree, etc…

• Swage Connecting Rod (#13417) andClevis Pin (#13522)

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

• Shellplate center hole. It’s easiest tolubricate the shellplate center holewhen changing from one caliber toanother.We recommend that you use a

droplet of Blue Loctite on the threads ofthe following bolts prior to reinstalling:#13333, #13296, and #13276 (see photosand schematics).

Lube Points for the Super 1050Crank Assembly

With the handle in the rest position,on the left side of the machine, use agrease syringe to lube the bearing pin(#11009) located in the link arm(#11002). Then, cycle the handle downto the bottom stop.

Again, using the grease syringe,lube the mainshaft pivot pin (#10994)on the left side of the machine via theaccess hole located 1.2" above the car-rier cap (#11010).

Use 30 weight motor oil on the main-shaft (#10999).

Towards the back of the machine,lube the indexing lever cam surface(#20312) and index lever shoulderbolt (#13276).

When it is time to lube the rollerbearings (#11008) in the frame andcrankshaft, first remove the swage rodassembly, swage connecting rod, andoperating handle. On the left side of themachine, use a 5/32" Allen wrench toremove the screw (#13685). Slide thecarrier cap (#11010) out of its bore andlube the left-hand side roller bearing(#11008) and carrier cap. Next, slide thecrankshaft (#11000) out of the frame

from the right side of the machine BUTNO MORE THAN 3/4". Using a greasesyringe, dispense some grease onto theright-hand side roller bearing (#11008).Next, lube the crankshaft surface(#11000). Then, reinsert the crankshaftfully into the frame. Reinstall the carriercap (#11010). Blue Loctite must be usedon the threads before installation, tight-en. Finally, reassemble the swage com-ponent and operating handle back ontothe frame. Lube the swage connectingrod (#13417) and clevis pin (#13522).
