WARNING: DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF OR IN THE PATH OF THE THROWING
ARM! SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT!
1.
The safety tube must be mounted properly before using the trap.
2.
Ensure the trap is located to allow ample clearance around the machine and provides safe
access to the rear of the trap during operation. The trap must be located so that the user has
safe access to the rear to operate the On/Off/Safe Release switch and reload the trap.
3.
Ensure that the On/Off/Safe Release switch is in the "OFF" position and the arm is in the uncocked
position.
4.
Place six (6) targets into the magazine and hold them flat. Pull back on Target Retainer
Loading Bar if the Rubber Target Retainer interferes with the targets.
5.
Release the Target Retainer Loading Bar if it was being held. The rubber target retainer should
be pressing on the 2nd target. Release the targets. Continue to load targets into the magazine
column.
6.
After the targets are loaded, connect the trap to a fully charged 12V battery, ensuring the
remote release cord is safely away from and behind the trap.
7.
Turn the On/Off/Safe Release switch to the "ON" position.
8.
The trap should cock the throwing arm and, at the same time, drop one target onto the
throwing arm as it is cocking.
9.
Activate the Foot Pedal Switch, and the Freedom Bird Trap will release the throwing arm
(launching the target), re-cock the throwing arm, and drop another target onto the throwing
arm.
WARNING: IF THERE IS A TARGET ON THE THROWING ARM, SAFE RELEASING
THE THROWING ARM WILL THROW THE TARGET. DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OF
THE TRAP.
10.
When reloading the trap, first move the ON/OFF/SAFE RELEASE switch to the "SAFE RELEASE"
position momentarily to un-cock the throwing arm. Then, allow the switch to return to the "OFF"
position. The trap magazine can then be safely reloaded with targets from the rear of the trap.
