Need help on primer parts terms- what do the parts do?

Hello new to the forum.

I am running 2, Dillon 550's. One for large primers and one for small primers. My question is what do the screws do when adjustments are made on the screws in the Primer Housing ( 20263)?

Part # 14037 Clamp/Bracket Screw? If turned to the right what happens? Or if turned to the left what happens?

Part# 13961  Slide pickup adjustment screw (allen screw).  Same question as above.

I made a caliber change from 45 ACP to 10 mm and my Primer Seating Cup did not aline with my Shell plate platform so I started adjusting screws.

Somehow unknown to me it came into aliment. I need to know what I did by adjusting the screws that made it aline and why.

Dillon did offer to replace the Primer Housing and shield (20263) for no charge.

Thanks in advance, Lou

PS: "ladies" is my user name until I can get Dillon to change it to  "ldanes".

 

 

 

 

I found these in the manual and should explain what each does.  Full manual attached for your reference.
