CENTERING THE FIELD 

 

Step 10

 

– The machine will come set with the bolt in the center of the rotation gear box shaft as 

shown in Photo #1 below.  To center the field, fire a clay and see if the clay comes out of the center of 
the trap house and travels straight away down the center of the field.   
 

Step 11

 

– Next, adjust the turnbuckle if the clay is not traveling straight away down the center of the 

field.  Simply loosen the nuts on the turnbuckle and either push or pull the machine to get the trap to 
fire the clay on center. 

 RETIGHTEN THE NUTS ON THE TURNBUCKLE TO HOLD THE 

CORRECT ADJUSTMENT!!!

 

 

Step 12

 

– Once centering the clay is achieved, remove the 3/8” allen bolt from the center of the shaft 

(Photo #1), remove the jam nut on the top of the nylon nut (Photo #2) and place the jam nut under the 
clamp block as shown below in Photo #3. 
 

Step 13

 

– Tighten the bolt in the center of the clamp block slot.  You can now test the angle that the 

machine will throw the clay.   
 

Step 14

 

– To open up the flight angle of the clay, loosen the 3/8” allen bolt and slide it out on the slot 

of the clamp block.  Retighten the bolt securely and test fire.  Sliding the bolt in on the slot will reduce 
the angle flight of the clay.

Step 15

 

– You can adjust the distance that the clay is thrown by extending the spring.  This is 

achieved by winding tension on or off the main spring 

using a ¾” wrench or the optional ¾” extended 

socked which can be attached to an impact drive. This should be done with the machine in the 
disarmed/safe condition for small adjustments. 

AFTER ADJUSTING THE MAIN SPRING FOR THE 

CORRECT THROWING DISTANCE, THE NUTS ON THE SPRING STUD MUST BE TIGHTENED 
SECURELY AGAINST EACH OTHER.
