Dillon Precision SL 900 - Manual (Page 22)

The SL 900 shotshell machine has been assembled
and tested using Winchester AA hulls. A sample is
included with the machine.
Station One – The collet sizer is adjusted for
resizing the brass base. Fig. 20
Station Two – Inside the powder die (#16744)
you’ll find the powder funnel Fig 21. This part
uniforms the top of the shotshell hull and dispenses
one charge of powder into the hull. The powder bar
will need to be adjusted to the desired powder
weight. Its important to use a quality powder scale to
do this. Fig 21A
The powder die has been adjusted to a height so
that the powder measure bellcrank can make full
strokes when activated. Fig 21B. Turning the powder
die (#16744) counterclockwise will raise the powder
system, reducing the amount of stroke the bellcrank
has. Fig 21C.
Station Three – Two operations occur here
involving wad and shot insertion.
In the wad swing arm (#16677) we’ve installed a
caliber specific wad guide (#16681). Fig. 22
The shot bar has a preliminary setting for 1 1/8 oz
shot weight. The shot bar will need to be adjusted to
your desired weight. Fig 23A
