Oh, a Drip-O-Matic. It will work fine after you get accustomed to the dripping. I have been using one for years. They all drip eventually. Place a ingot mold underneath to catch most of the drips. Keep a screwdriver handy to turn the plunger back and forth in order to stop the dripping. Lead temp should be about 725deg. Place the mold on top of the furnace or use a hot plate for preheating mold. A cold or oily mold will not make good bullets no matter what you do. Clean mold before preheating, I use naphtha (lighter fluid) it evaporates completely leaving no residue. Good luck and come back and let us know how it went.
