Power supply / Batteries
Before working on the batteries or inserting new batteries,
make sure that the unit is turned OFF!
The ON / OFF switch is on the front of the electronic unit
and is labelled with I for ON and 0 for OFF.
To insert the batteries release the locking by pressing the plastic
plate direction the clock. The battery contact board
can then be removed upwards.
Important:
The batteries must be removed
when the unit is stored!
Open the lid of the electronic unit (108511) and make sure that the paper strip
between the batteries and the contact board is removed.
After this press the battery contact board back down to close it.

Setting the timer
If the batteries are inserted and are in contact with the battery contact
board the timer will directly start working
To set up the timer, open the clear cover from the timer.
Setting the actual time
By turning the inner disk clockwise the current time is set to the small arrow.
One turn means one hour.
The little mark on the disc is meant to be the minutes. If the mark shows up it
is one hour, to the right 1/4 hour, downwards 1/2 hour and to
the left a 3/4 hour.
Setting the work time
The clock is set from the factory so that it will work 24 hours. All cams are
pushed outward. To set the pause time, the cams have to pushed in.
Each cam stands for 30 minutes
Cam outside / Unit works
Cam inside / Break (Unit doesn’t work)
The working time should adjust to suit the local conditions. It is recommended to
observe the feeding times of the birds/animals and set the timer to suit.
Council regulations may also need to be observed.
Switch I AUTO 0 always in position “Auto”
Important:
NEVER turn the timer anticlockwise!!

The best thing is to start with a setup that bangs not so often.
Only when the number of birds and wild animals is getting bigger then
change the switch (for example from 3 to 2) to reduce the pause interval.
Setting the shot frequency
You can choose from 4 different time frames, how long the pause time should be.
The unit will then shoot randomly in that time to avoid habituation effect.
If the number of birds and wild
animals is not large then it is
possible to increase the pause
time. In our experience, an
intensive multi-shot approach
with longer pause intervals is
much better and more effective
than lots of frequent shots.
Switch position Break time
1Break of 2 –4 minutes
2Break of 4 –8 minutes
3Break of 8 –16 minutes
4Break of 16 –32 minutes
8
Setting the volume
With a switch on the board the volume of the unit can
be set in two different volumes
For the full volume the switch has to be on position B, for
a reduced volume the switch has to be on A
Switch position A= Reduced sound level
100m distance approx 90db(A)
Switch position B= Full sound level
100m distance approx 96db(A)

1 shot = both switches up
2 shot = left up / right down
3 shot = left down / right up
4 shot = both switches down
Setting the number of shots
Changing the number of shots only when the unit is turned off!
Wait 15 seconds before turning the unit on again so it can re-set properly.
The recommended number of shots is 3.
Tests have shown that the best results will be made with the 3 shots.

next to the adjustable pole. Use the wing screw to adjust the length so
that the adjustable pole has the same length like the other poles.
After this place all three poles on the bearing block.

Slide the gas hose (Gh-2) trough
the middle of the bearing block.
Using the adjustable pole the unit
can be adjusted to the ground that
the unit stands horizontally.
After all poles are mounted on the bearing block, the Purivox
Carousel Triplex V can be turned over and put on the foot plates.
19
Hang one side of the chain (102080) with the sharp end of the hook
pointing out of the bearing block. Move the chain
through the handle of the bottle and attach the other end of the chain
also to the bearing block (sharp end outside!)
