Operation - Champion EASYBIRD 40913 Instruction Manual

WARNING! DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF TRAP OR IN THE PATH OF THE THROWING
ARM! SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT!
1. Make sure that the ON/OFF/SAFE RELEASE switch (FIGURE 1) for the EASYBIRD 6-Packer and
EASYBIRD Auto-Feed is in the "OFF" position. If using the EASYBIRD 6-Packer make sure the
ON/OFF/JOG switch for the Oscillating Base (FIGURE 4) is in the "OFF" position. If using the
EASYBIRD Auto-Feed make sure the ON/OFF switch on the oscillating base power cord is in the
"OFF" position.
2. Ensure that there is an adequately charged 12VDC battery connected and that the remote release
cord is safely away from the trap.
3. Make sure that the lock down nut that locks the oscillating base in a fixed position is loose
(See Page 5.), allowing free movement of the base while under electrical power.
4. The EASYBIRD 6-Packer or EASYBIRD Auto-Feed can now be switched ON and used to throw
targets.
5. To start the trap oscillating: If using the EASYBIRD 6-Packer, turn the ON/OFF/JOG switch for the
Oscillating Base to the "ON" position. If using the EASYBIRD Auto-Feed, turn the ON/OFF switch
on the oscillating base power cord to the "ON" position.
6. To rotate and lock the trap to a specific position: If using the EASYBIRD 6-Packer, hold the
ON/OFF/JOG switch for the oscillating base to the "JOG" position and release the switch when the
trap rotates to the position desired. If using the EASYBIRD Auto-Feed, turn the ON/OFF switch on
the oscillating base power cord to the "ON" position and turn "OFF" when the trap rotates to the
position desired. Tighten the lock down nut (See Page 5.) to lock the base in position and prevent
drifting when firing the trap.

7. When reloading the trap, first turn off the oscillating base. Move the ON/OFF/SAFE RELEASE
switch on the EASYBIRD 6-Packer or the EASYBIRD Auto-Feed Trap to the "SAFE RELEASE"
position momentarily to uncock the throwing arm and allow it to return to the 'OFF' position to turn
power to the Trap off. The trap magazine can then be safely reloaded with targets from the rear of
the trap.
CAUTION! Be sure to loosen the lock down nut that locks the base in a fixed position
(See Page 5.) prior to turning on the oscillating base. Failure to do so will cause belt
