changing powder bars

How do you change the powder bar on a rl550b from the small bar to the large bar?  I didn't see anything in the manual. 

Instructions are on page 13 in the instruction manual.

Short form- first, empty the powder from the hopper. Then, pull out the white plastic plug from the body of the measure. Now slide out the powder bar spacer. Lift up on the small bar to clear the white bellcrank cube, and remove it from the body. Slide the large bar into the body until it contacts the bellcrank cube. Use your finger to reach inside the other end of the body and push the bellcrank cube outward until the powder bar can slide in past it. Push the bar in the rest of the way. Rotate the bellcrank until the cube is aligned with the notch,pivot it as needed to align.

Thanks for the info. I see it in the instructions now.  Your explanation is much clearer than whats in the manual.

Most people usually find it easier to simply buy a second powder measure and have 1 setup for pistol and 1 setup for rifle all the time. You may not want to start out with this, but keep this in the back of your mind in case you see a Dillon powder measure for sale.
