arrow Fig. 11) and snap the rod bushing (#18086)
into the platform. Thread the blue wing nut (#13799)
“up” until there’s some spring tension against the
platform – two to three turns. Do not fill the powder
measure (#17817) at this time. This will be completed
later.
10. Next we move to station three where the wad
is seated and the shot is dispensed. The Dillon shot
dispenser works similar to the powder measure
(#17817). The shot dispenser is activated by the hull
at this station. No hull – no shot. Every complete
stroke of the shot bar dispenses one charge of shot. To
adjust, loosen the bolt set screw (#16740) 1/4 of a
turn. Then use a 7/16” wrench to rotate the bolt
located on the end of the shot bar (#16738) –
counterclockwise will reduce the shot weight and
clockwise will increase the shot weight. Fig. 12
11. To complete the assembly of the shot
dispenser tube, you’ll need the following items from
the parts bag: shot bar return rod (#16733), clear shot
feed tube, two shot dispenser fittings (#17139), two
shot fitting e-clips (#17202) and two tube clamps. Fig.

12. Assemble the shot dispenser fittings to the
clear shot feed tube. Fig. 14 Place the tube clamps
loosely on the tube. Slide one end of the shot
dispenser fitting into the bottom of the shot hopper
(#16724 item A Fig. 13) and lock it in using one of
the shot fitting e-clips. Now, align the complete
assembly and install the other shot dispenser fitting
and e-clip into the dispenser top (#17142) and tighten
the clamps. Fig. 15
13. When installing the shot bar return rod
(#16733), use your left hand to move the lock link
down over the slot in the shot dispenser bellcrank.
Fig. 16 Now, insert the hook end of the shot bar
return rod (#16733) through both parts. On the
bottom of the rod is a blue wing nut (#13799), spring
and white rod bushing (#18086). Slide this end into
the receiver and snap the rod bushing in the platform.
Thread the blue wing nut (#13799) “up” until there is
some spring tension against the platform – two to
