Positioning and fixing clay pigeon trap
Your clay pigeon trap can be fixed onto and operated from a pallet however, we could recommend a more
permanent bolted position or a Bowman barrow. If you have purchased a barrow position the trap onto the
barrow and line up the 3 bolt holes. Use the 12mm bolts provided to secure your trap to the barrow. A
washer should be placed on either side, a spring washer goes on before the nut to secure.

- Page 4 Adjusting advance and retard limit switch The Limit Switch is set to stop the throwing arm just before it goes ‘over centre’ and fires. We set this at the factory however if the arm stops too far from the clay or too close to the centre causing ‘auto fir- ing’, please follow these instructions to re-set it.
- Page 5 Adjusting the timing of the carousel The timing of the your carousel is set at the Bowman factory. We set is so that when the trap is switched to ‘on run’, the carousel indexes around and places a stack of clays over the hole in the main plate. The knives are responsible for splitting the clays and allowing 1 clay to fall through while the rest remain supported.
- Page 6 Servicing - Lubrication continued... Lubricate the limit switch roller regularly to avoid it ceasing up. This column of moving parts that is powered by the motor and gear box is important to keep lubricated. Lubricate the rod end bearing and moving joints at the rear of the trap to ensure they continue to move freely.

Connect the radio receiver to the green six pin circular socket on the DTL control Box. The notch in the radio receivers plug should face north as you push it into the socket and then screw the collar on to secure the connection.
- Page 10 Variations Supermatch 6/8 Multi-Clay Our Multi-Clay variation has all the features of the standard Supermatch 6 model except for 1 key change that allows you to throw a combination of clay sizes from the same carousel! This is achieved by a new clay separating system and adding inserts into the hoppers of the carousel. With NO inserts in the carousel your trap will throw all standard (110mm) clays.
- Page 11 – this trap alone could occupy a stand on a sporting layout. At Bowman we like to make our traps as versatile as possible therefore, our battue trap can be converted to throw standard and midi clays.
- Page 12 In higher elevations and incorporating tilt, it offers a battue style clay when shot from right to left (going out flat then, turning and dipping towards the ground) and a curling away looper when shot from left to right. At Bowman we like to make our traps as versatile as possible therefore the trap can be converted back to fire standard clays if required.
