Shell Plate Not Advancing
Quote from Reloader on November 2, 2014, 6:14 pmI have a slightly different issue with the shell plate not advancing with my Square Deal. It appears that with each stroke the indexer shifts slightly out of position and does not line up with the hole properly to index it. I am not sure how to set it so it stays in the right position. Here is a link which shows the issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

I would try a small shot of Hornaday 'One Shot' shot on the pivot points to see if that works. Only a drop is needed. I expect some dis-assembly and cleaning might be in order.
Dillon on the phone can best advise by watching the video and can help with grease and oil locations.
Keep us posted.
