Got a few today an installed one ..it's just the pan an the dog so I crimped the pan on the spring pin bar there an put the dog on now when I go to set the trap the jaw hits the crimped arms of the pan so the jaw dosnt go down all the way so the dog won't go under the pan to set unless I bend a 45 on it ...any input from guys that installed these before the pit09c

I have the same problem. Looking forward to answers.

Just set up a dozen and didn't have that issue. It's tight but has clearance. Check to see if the spring pin is all the way forward in it's notch. Tap it forward if not.
Some of mine needed a little extra twist on the top ear of the legs. Hold the pan down and roll it down with the pliers.

Yeah spring pin is in the notch ...explain that last part a little better if you could I can give that a try ...anybody have the number to guy that makes the pans?

1 (724) 479-9442 Ed Mendtz. Very interesting guy to talk to.

The two "ears" that fit over the pin. Squeeze the top one down more than the bottom one.

Thanks for the tip there an the number ...seemed to got it figured out now ...if I wanted to add some pan tension to the things what do I need to do there? There firing off like pound an half now

Bend the dog up to increase, down to decrease. Careful a little goes a long way with that system.

Thanks for all the help ..are you closing the pan tabs completely?

No
