failsafe rod

having issue with XL 650 failsafe rod, I must be missing something here, watched video, slide bushing up into return bracket, rod is inserted from the left side into powder measure , wing nut tightened till spring compressed to hold business card, bushing just comes right out when raised, powder bar never moves, not sure what I'm missing?????

The bushing should be a tight fit in its bracket. Mine is very tight and does not come out. The powder bar is activated by the cartridge pressing up from beneath. If you have no cartridge in the station, the charge bar does not move and no powder drops.

Dont know why the bushing slips out, not tight at all, everything is working, just bushing slips out have to snap back in from time to time,thanks!

Notify Dillon. Evidently they shipped an improper or faulty piece. Mine was so tight I had to but on leather gloves to slide it into place. Dillon will get your problem remedied.
