(a) Disconnect the Pull Cord and switch the trap back on.
If the trap cocks normally - then the Pull Cord is damaged or shorted out. Alternatively, the push button
switch is stuck in or faulty.
(b) If the trap continues to fire – Check to make sure the Throwing arm is contacting the roller limit switch arm.
The arm should pass over the limit switch with only a small amount of space.
(c) If the machine still fires by itself - check if the relay contacts have stuck together, and if so replace. If the
relay operates correctly, but the trap still fires by itself, then the roller limit switch is faulty and should be
replaced.
(d) If the machine still fires by itself – Throwing arm timing could have slipped. Call the Technical Support
Line for help.
