Dillon Super Swager: How to Change out Dies?

[Lovegasoline]

I have a used Dillon Swager. It comes with two sets of dies (lrg,sm)...each set includes 2 dies, one for inside of the case (anvil) and one for outside of the case that enters the primer pocket.

Changing the inside case die (anvil) is straightforward....I cannot see an easy method of changing the shorter die, the one that goes into the primer pocket (and is mounted closer to the handle). Do you need to remove the heavy shaft that the handle pivots on to swap out the dies?

Is there any sort of instruction sheet for setting the tolerance/depth of the dies? I've never swaged cases before so I'm not certain what constitutes a well vs. a poorly swaged case.

If it matters, my Swager is likely an older generation, it doesn't say "Super Swager" or "600" on it, nor does it have a model number on it...however, it looks exactly like the current model featured in the Blue Press circular.

Thanks a bunch.
