Primer Indexing Arm Issues
Quote from Reloader on May 20, 2011, 10:03 pmThe primer indexing arm does not ratchet out of the primer hole, it simple pulls the hole back so that it the primer plate never actually advances. My machine has roughly 300 rounds loaded since new.

If slide on top, out of the primer hole, slide it back and index a few primers out. If jammed, then remove the two bolts holding the assembly to the frame and remove the jam. The owner manual has good parts blow-up of the assembly. Review page 34, figure 162 and 163 for removal. Page 35 for taking primer assembly apart. Page 53 has nice expanded view of parts to primer feed assembly.
