MB 750 Wolf Trap, How to Set the Pan Tension

Pan tension is critical to catching wolves, nothing is more frustrating that setting gear and having something other than your target species fire your traps. Wolves are smart and when the opportunity to catch one comes along you don't want to miss due to your trap not firing or having something other than a wolf fire it. There are many different traps out there , In this video I show you how I set the tension in a MB 750 wolf trap. I use a fishing scale and a few other tools to accomplish this. Pan scales are not readily available to test high poundage's for wolf traps. This system works well for me.

Thank you for sharing! I had the same thing happen on some of my coyote traps with brass bolts and nuts! Switched them to stainless too!!
