This triangle will begin the outside dimension of the trap enclosure (C). Secure 18-60™ Panels to posts in seconds using a drill and M.I.N.E.™ Post Clips. Standing inside the trap enclosure, install a post clip (11 gauge) around the post and panel (A). Insert a M.I.N.E.™ Clip Socket onto the post clip (B).

Trap shy adult hogs will not step over a threshold. Dig a two-inch trench with a hand pick to conceal the bottom gate frame (A). Use a level to ensure the drop gate remains square for smooth operation. Cover the threshold with dirt and camouflage to blend with surrounding area (B).

The long range transmitter frequencies are timed to the receiver during assembly and quality control. Users may time transmitters to multiple receivers to close more than one gate on a trap enclosure. Timing the M.I.N.E.™ camera to the control box is covered in the M.I.N.E.™ camera’s Operations Manual. Timing Steps: 1.

The trap enclosure is built with the gate opening 16 feet from the feeder. This will leave approximately 20 feet of spin cast area without throwing bait outside the enclosure. Below is an example using a JAGER PRO™ Dinner Bell™ feeder modification to prevent bait being thrown outside of the trap enclosure.
