The casefeed tube (#20533*) should now be inserted into the casefeed adapter (#13654*) Fig. 7 Note that the tube is marked “up” on one end. Press this end into the tube clip (#13859) attached to the casefeeder motor housing Fig. 8. This assembly is now complete. Fig.
Super 1050, May 2007 5/21/07 12:00 PM Page 8 Step 5: Cycling the Machine At this point your assembly should be complete. Gently pull the operating handle towards you, make a full stroke to the bottom and up again. The shellplate should be indexing and the primer slide (#20318*) should function. The casefeed plunger (#13073*) should travel forward to the shellplate. Make sure that you repeat this several times to gain an understanding of the various functions of the machine before you start reloading.

Cases may become lodged between the micro-switch and the tube wall. The other extreme is the case failing to put enough pressure on the micro-switch to shut off the system causing it to continue running and over flowing the tube. Remove the two clutch screws (#13732), lock washer (#13813) and upper clutch (#13632) and the casefeed plate.

Note: If you screw the die down too far, the case will look like example "C" in the illustration (right). You must then discard this case, back the powder die off, by turning it counter clockwise, and continue with a new sized case. You’ll soon learn to judge the correct amount of bell by simply looking at it.

It is highly recommended that the Super 1050 be cleaned and lubed after every 10,000 rounds of operation. Use a high-grade, conventional wheel bearing grease – do not use oil.
Super 1050, May 2007 5/21/07 12:00 PM Page 22 Lube Points for the Super 1050 Crank Assembly With the handle in the rest position, on the left side of the machine, use a grease syringe to lube the bearing pin (#11009) located in the link arm (#11063). Then, cycle the handle down to the bottom stop. Again, using the grease syringe, lube the mainshaft pivot pin (#10994) on the left side of the machine via the access hole located 1.2" above the carrier cap (#11010).
