Moultrie Pro Hunter III Directional Deer Feeder Kit Instruction Manual

Modèle : MFG-15099

Introduction

The Moultrie Pro Hunter III Directional Feeder Kit is designed for precise feed placement, suitable for attracting deer or feeding fish. This kit delivers feed in a focused stream, unlike broadcast feeders that scatter feed in all directions.

This kit operates on a 6V tab-top rechargeable battery and includes a hinged door with a backlit screen for easy programming. Multiple speed settings allow adjustment of feed spread distance. The unit is solar-ready and offers feed level monitoring through the app. Quick-Lock compatibility ensures fast, tool-free installation and removal.
