45 ACP crimp with Lee die

Machine is 550B

I am having fits with trying to put a crimp on 45 ACP LSWC. In station 4 I have the Lee Crimp die. My bullets are seated to 1.25 in. but I cannot figure out how to put a crimp on them. All I've done is push the pullet further into the case with no crimp.

What steps do I use?

thanks

Never mind. A simple fix. I took the die apart to clean it and a bullet was stuck inside. Duh.
