Thanx for the tip,even one mechanically challenged like myself can do that. I have several dozen of those traps and had the pan stick only a couple of times, but thats too much.

Good tip... I tac weld the nut on mine because I'm doing other work and have the welder running. It's worth the time to do.. I'll make you cry seeing the jaws barely raised and the pan depressed between the levers by a $300 cat...
