What is the nature of the problem?

 

[batchman]

it is not feeding the primers into the primer seat so i have to take the brass out push a primer on the seating rod put the brass back and then seat it as you can imagine this slows the process way down and takes the progressive out of the picture

make sure you primer chute is clean and dry.if it has any grit or oil in there at all it will mess the function up.thats probably the one thing that will give you fits on the 1000.might check to see if it has a burr on plastic also.

it looks like the primer feeder is not going down far enough for the primer to get pushed in. I zeroed it out like the manuel said but that only seem to make it worse is there a way to adjust the primer seater rod?

have you called Lee tech support? Pat up there is really good about helping out with those loaders. I don't think there is any way to adjust the primer rod. mine kept flipping the primer over. it was the shell plate . good luck with your press. there are a few you-tube's on that press that help IMO
