Step 6: STATION FIVE (Shot Drop)
Fig. 7: Shot Drop
Before pulling the handle (#37), rotate the shot shut-off (#70) backward, turning on the
shot. Now, lower the handle (#37). The shot drop tube (#47) enters the case mouth and then
both case and shot drop tube (#47) rise together to the top of the stroke. In this fashion, all the
shot enters the case without being spilled. No adjustment of this station is possible. Upon
completion of the stroke, the shells will advance to the next station. Normally, we would leave
the shot drop on, but since we are taking a single shell through the sequence, rotate the shot
rotor (#70) forward to shut off the shot.
