  • Page 2 WARNING WARNING Do not use this heater around your reloading bench. While Annie emits no sparks nor flames, it can heat objects inserted into its work coil hot enough to ignite powder and primers. Serious harm or death could result.

  • Page 3: Safety Warnings

    70 deg C (158 deg F). This is quite hot to the touch and can cause mild burns. If Annie must be operated for an extended period then we suggest setting up a fan to blow on the case.

  • Page 4: Setting Up For The First Time

    The Annie is sold apart from the various coils, but they all connect to the front panel in the same way. To prepare Annie for operation, remove it from its packing material and attach the work coil to •...

  • Page 5: Heating Times

    ◦ Note: “20.0” seconds is a special setting (on some versions it's “999”). This allows for 'momentary' operation. This is not used in reloading where timing is important, but the Annie does occasionally get some odd jobs that need it.
  • Page 6 It also features an open side, which some folks prefer. The Annie FC coil kit comes with 4 ferrite halves, and hardware that bolts them together. The halves are color-coded according to cut size on the gap end. Mix and match until you get the right gap. The cartridge should be tight, but not touching the sides.
  • Page 7 The Fluxeon Universal Foot Switch • The Universal Foot Switch is compatible with the Annie. Use it to actuate the timer, same as pressing the 'Start” button. It will give you an extra free hand to move your brass. Older versions of the foot switch connect to the front panel DB-9 connector, but we made a change.
  • Page 8 (we’re working on a higher capacity system….) The newest revision of the Annie features an internal pump power supply. So it can be powered by plugging an included cable that connects the pump to the DB9 front panel connector. If you prefer, you can use any 12VDC power supply with a 2.5mm connector.
  • Page 9 Some Notes About the Flux Concentrator and Litz Wire The Annie has about a 50% duty-cycle. What does this really mean? At 100% power, it can only be on half the time. Since most cartridges will not draw full-power, and it takes time to move cartridges through, Annie is essentially a continuous-use machine.

  • Page 10: Care And Cleaning

    The outlet’s ground will help dissipate any harmful static electricity buildup. If Annie gets wet, as long as the power is off, it will not be harmed. Simply let it dry before using. Set it in the window sill or some other warm place. If you have any doubt at all that it's dry, please return it to us for service.

    External Switch in ** 12V Pump –neg 450mA MAX * Pins 4 and 8 turn on the Annie when shorted (switched). It is wired in parallel with the Start button on the front panel. ** Pins 4 and 8 are for connection to an external switch such as The Fluxeon Universal Foot Switch, or any other physical switch.
