Method Two:
1. Hang the Mega-Catch Mosquito Trap from the Stand (see Page 3 - Stand Assembly
Instructions section).
2. Slide the Skirt up from the bottom of the Trap (over 2 corners initially) with the elastic
band at the top.
3. The Skirt is properly fitted when the elastic band is seated over the lower horizontal rib,
just below the inlet holes (see figure 5). The opening in the Skirt should be located at the
front of the Trap so as to facilitate removal of the Door without having to remove the
Skirt. The hook-and-loop fastening on this opening should be closed when the Trap is
running.
The Skirt is not manufactured from a U.V.-resistant material but this will not be an issue if the
Trap is operated in shaded conditions as recommended. The Skirt can be reversed should one side
begin to fade from exposure to U.V. light. The Skirt is a consumable item and replacements can
be obtained from your Authorized Distributor.
Your Mega-Catch Mosquito Trap requires very little maintenance. The Catch Bag and Liquid
Catch Container should be cleaned and washed when required. Heavy catches of mosquitoes may
result in a build-up of material in the internal casing and blade tips of the Fan. There may also
be a build-up of material on the Fan Safety Guard. If this happens use the following cleaning
technique:
1. Ensure the power to your Mega-Catch Mosquito Trap is disconnected. (Attention: High-
Speed Fan inside the Trap may cause injury if the power is not disconnected.)
2. Unlock and remove the Lockable Door. Then lay the Trap on its side with the Door opening
being face up.
3. Reach inside the Trap and remove the Fan Safety Guard (attached to base of Fan) by turning
it counterclockwise (see figure 6).
4. Using a small sponge or toothbrush and warm soapy water, reach into the Trap and carefully
clean the inside casing of the Fan and the Fan Blades.
5. Ensure that water is not allowed to enter into the Fan Motor. Never hose water into the
Fan.
6. Clean and then replace the Fan Safety Guard.
7. Leave the Trap to dry for at least 24 hours before recommencing operation.
