RL550B primer bar questions

[MichiganTom]

The press came with missing parts my friends wife made disappear . So I ordered a large powder bar and conversions.

Now I read to page 9 of the manual stating that the press came with a large primer bar installed. To go to small primers I need to install the small pistol bar.

That's MIA. I noticed there is only one part number for the primer bar. Is it safe to ASSUME the small primer bar and large primer bar are the same,minus the small parts?

I want to change out the primer cup with the spare small primer cup that came in the spare parts kit..

Will that work?

I also read I think to clean off the baseplate with a green scotchbrite pad? I can see the case head impression in the gunk.

I noticed the bolt holding down the star carrier and conversion was loose,maybe that's why he was having issues before he gave up on it and dropped it off on my bench and drove home 200 miles.

Did you happen to read all of the OP?

The part where I posted that on page 9 it mentions the primer bar comes to mind.

The bars are identical; only the primer cup and punch are diameter-specific. The small bar has a brass-colored cup, the large bar has a silver-colored cup.
