Leftover Parts
Quote from Reloader on May 26, 2011, 7:29 pmI performed final assembly on my 1050 this afternoon.
At the end of it I had three parts left over
The first part looks like a spring for the shell plate index ball.
The second part looks like a washer for the case feeder support studs. I used one on the bottom stud at the machine side as per the manual. The top stud has the loaded bullet bin bracket at the machine connection point and the directions call for no stud to be used so as to keep spacing correct.
The third is a 1/4-20 x 1/2 button socket head screw.
I know you cant tell me I didn't miss anything but are these parts typically over packed when the machines are shipped?
Thank you,
Phil McLaine

If the washer is about 2" in diameter, then it is the spacer washer for the case feed plate.
Check the exploded drawing on page 30 to make sure the proper screws are installed. It is very possible an extra screw or washer can get added to the package.

I will keep the information for future reference and put them in envelopes marked with part #s.
The washer is not a 2" washer/spacer for the case feed plate. I received one of those in the case feeder box. It is exact same size/dimension as the washer used between the bottom case feed mount stud and the machine. I guess it would be used for spacing if I decided not to use the loaded ammo support bracket or the bullet bin but otherwise it is un needed. I installed one washer as noted and used the supplied load bullet bin bracket, accesory bullet tray bracket and the loaded bullet bin support bracket so the stud spacing should be square all around.
I'll search the exploded diagram for any missing 1/4-20 bolts. It did not fall from the machine as it was provided in the parts bag. Its the same screw as used to secure the case feeder to the case feeder post. Maybe it was meant for that but I used the one that came with the case feeder.
I'm not going to worry about it. I have way more parts left over when I fix my motorcycle brakes and that has never been a problem.
Thank you.
