Watch the primer slider!
Try and watch the primer slider to make sure a primer is in the guide on the down stroke and watch for it to return empty on the up stroke. Doing this will prevent you from charging a case without powder and spilling on and under the shell plate. This could lead to the primer pin sticking.

The Six Pack Pro loads very quickly and smoothly and if you don't note you could run that primer trough empty.
The last few primers will not feed as they need the weight of an almost full primer trough to feed.
Checking the powder charge!
From my vantage point I can clearly see the powder charge in station 3 and 4. Yes I do have a DAA Magnetic Powder Check Die installed in station 3 but making a habit of checking the powder charge is just safer. Batteries die at the worst of times and that DAA Powder Check works with a battery...

Removing the shell plate to do this is easy.
Remove the index rod at the bottom of the stroke. Remove the case ejector. With the included ΒΌ inch hex key turn the drive bolt clockwise to remove the shell plate. Clean and reinstall.
Progressive presses like to run clean.

Ja, would that be true I'd be fitter and flatter of stomach. My cd/dvd stocks started doing service as bird scarers in the veggie patch when the last device for playing them in our house kakked it's last.
