WARNING:

 BEFORE PERFORMING ANY REPAIR, MAINTENANCE, OR ASSEMBLY, 

MAKE SURE THE THROWING ARM IS IN THE UNCOCKED POSITION (SEE  BELOW),

THE „OFF„ POSITION (SEE PHOTO BELOW) , AND THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED 
FROM THE TRAP. 

 

     If the throwing arm is in the cocked arm position (see photo below), uncock 
the throwing arm by first connecting the red battery lead to the positive (+) 
terminal and the black battery lead to the negative (-) terminal on the battery.  
Momentarily press the on/off/safe release switch
