sl900 casefeed tube
Quote from Reloader on September 7, 2011, 1:04 pmi just bought a used sl900 with a casefeeder. i can't get a 12 ga. hull to slide freely through the tube. it hangs up when it falls out of the casefeeder. is there something wrong with the tube or do i have something wrong. everything appears to be lined up correctly. just looking for a little advice.

Quote from Reloader on September 28, 2011, 8:57 pmWhen you say it hangs up when it falls out of the case feeder, is it hanging up on the micro switch or is it hanging up on the down tube?

Quote from Reloader on October 6, 2011, 2:56 pmDoes an empty hull slide thru the tube when it isn't in the loader? Does the mouth of the tube look round or oval?Are the hulls squashed?

Quote from Reloader on October 29, 2011, 11:57 pma hull will slide through it while it's took off. it just catches the top of the tube dropping into it. right now i've had to take a piece of string tied to the tube and tie it back tight to the casefeeder arm. seems to of helped

Quote from Reloader on February 17, 2012, 2:14 amwish i had seen your post earlier - but surely you're up and running by now. anyway, i had the exact same problem. i discovered that the pressure exerted by the little clamp that holds the tube at the base of the feeder can cause the tube to come out of round - notice how the hulls only bind at the top of the tube and not at the bottom. after thinking about it for a minute, i just spread the "wings" on the clamp a little bit to take some pressure off of the tube, rotated the tube 90 degrees and every hull has been dropping fine ever since. good luck with it
