Problem: Primer attachment feeds primers regardless whether there is a case in station #2, two primers are found on top of the primer push rod, and/or extra primers are found at the base of station #2.
Solution: Case sensor spring is not installed properly and applying pressure on the primer push rod which keeps the rod from rising up to prevent extra primers from sliding into station #2. The bent part of the spring needs to go around the base the rod moves up and down in. Also, be sure the case sensor (black plastic part with a round end) is installed correctly and moves freely.
Picture on the left shows incorrectly installed case sensor spring which will hold the rod down, allowing extra primers to slide into station #2. Picture on the right shows correctly installed spring which allows the rod to stay up when there is no case present in station #2 and block primers from sliding into station #2.
Improper shellplate timing, dirty/rough/damaged primer attachment surface (see post #67), debri in the primer rod hole, incorrectly installed case sensor spring, and/or cycling the shellplate too fast to allow a primer to slide into station #2 (remember, it is based on gravity) probably account for most of frustration Pro 1000 users experience. As illustrated, they are relatively easy to resolve and will get you back to less troublesome reloading.
