Adjustments
Casefeeder
It may be necessary to readjust the
micro-switch for different calibers.
C
ases may become lodged between the
micro-switch and the tube wall. The
o
ther extreme is the case failing to put
enough pressure on the micro-switch to
shut off the system causing it to contin-
ue running and over flowing the tube.
R
emove the two clutch screws
(#13732), lock washer (#13813) and
upper clutch (#13632) and the case-
feed plate. Place the spacer on the
shoulder of the lower clutch and
reassemble – see the schematic on
page 31 for more details. The casefeed
plate should now be approximately
1/8” above the floor of the casefeed
bowl. Note: Make sure the casefeed
plate is centered in the bowl.

Swaging on the Super 1050 is a sim-
ple process and is necessary on all car-
t
ridge cases as a means of uniforming
the entrance of the primer pocket. Fig.

#20313 - small) is fully adjustable.
Swage Conversion and
Adjustment Conversion – Fig. 29
Begin by removing the swage cover
(#13064). Next remove the hitch pin
(#13840) and slide out the clevis pin
(#13522). Remove the operating handle.
Rotate the swage connecting rod a half
t
urn and remove it. This will allow you
access to the swager. Pull the swager
down and out of the machine.

Swage Adjustments
Use ONLY an unswaged military case
for these adjustments.
With the handle in the down posi-
tion, screw the swage back-up
expander down until it makes contact
with the case bottom and holds it in
place.
Fig. 30
With the handle still in the down posi-
tion, turn the s
w
age rod up until it
makes contact with the case bottom.
Raise the handle halfway and rotate
the swage rod a quarter turn. Now, cycle
the handle. Inspect the case and when
you achieve a completed swage of the
primer pocket, tighten the swage lock
nut (#14067).
A properly swaged pocket will show
a rounded edge around the rim. Some
military cases (.223 & .308) start out
with three small dents around the base
