Good evening everyone,
so a couple days ago i received my new Hornady LNL single stage press that i mostly want to use to load rifle cartridges (.223, .308 and 8mm Mauser). As i was setting up the press i encountered one issue though.
I can absolutely not figure out how to change the primer cups from large to small on the little attachment that slides into the ram. The instructions simply tell me to unscrew the large one and screw in the small primer holder, however there appear to be no threads so i can screw as long as i want and nothing happens.

For clarification, here's a photo of the piece I'm talking about.

I'd be really thankful for any help since i'm really getting desperate.

thank you very much for your help!
