Trailer Make & Trailer Model Year: This information is used to determine the correct mounting brackets and hardware needed for installing your AutoTrap™ correctly.
Trap Style: Specifying your trap style (Rack & Pinion or Strap-Trap) is important to help Shur-Co's customer service determine the correct motor for your trailer. An incorrect motor amy damage your strap style or Rollertrap™* system.
Front Hopper & Back Hopper Directions: DD refers to the Direct Drive rotation that the crankshaft must be turned to OPEN the hopper. If your hopper has a 2-speed gear box, look at the direction of rotation of the shaft & u-joint to determine this direction as the ProTrap® is pre-programmed and wired according to this information.
Remote Option: The patented SMART3™ is our standard 5-channel remote that utilizes the "Press-n-Hold" and "Express Mode" operational features and 1-way communication. The patented SMART2™ is our latest remote system that utilizes 2-way communication to display the status of the ProTrap® channel you are controlling. It also provides additional motor protection built into the controls and has "Express Mode" capability. For more information on the SMART3™ CLICK HERE and for the SMART2™ CLICK HERE.
Electric Tarp Currently Installed: This question is only used to help Shur-Co® get you all the correct parts and wiring for the AutoTrap™ installation. Checking yes for this question is not an order for an electric tarp.
NOTE: Please call Shur-Co® at 1-800-474-8756 to order triple and quad hopper trailers, lead/pup trailer combos or AutoTrap™/4500HD combos.
