SETTING BODYGRIP TRAPS
Note: care must taken when setting spring traps.
Light-weight, compact, BMI BODYGRIP TRAPS are designed for use in a wide variety of predator control, pest control and wildlife management applications. The MAGNUM SERIES trap is widely considered the fastest, humane killing production bodygrip trap on the market today. They are ideal for trapping Squirrels, Mink, Stoats, Rabbits and Rats.
These traps are widely used by wildlife managers and trappers throughout
the United States and the UK. Their experience proves these traps work equally
well on the ground, suspended, submerged in water, under ice, or when
covered with light snow. However, they should not be used where they might
take non-target animals.
Recent refinements in the MAGNUM SERIES have made these traps even
more effective to use.
Every BMI BODYGRIP TRAP has a 4-way trigger that fires the trap
when an animal pushes the trigger from any direction including the side
and has a trigger wire which can be shaped to control the strike area.
SETTING INSTRUCTIONS
Extend spring so it is pointed directly away from trap. Then grip and compress spring.
As the spring is compressed, pull trap frames together with other hand. Engage the safety clip over both spring arms at the trap end of the spring and slide it back towards the spring loop.
Position trigger and dog at desired location along frame and then set trigger in preferred notch of dog.
Be sure trigger is secure within notch of dog. Then grip compressed spring and release frames slowly. Disengage safety clip when the spring trap is in position. Spring can be swung to side if necessary for desirable setting position.
