I have trouble setting the duke #2 traps there hard to set them the only way i could set them by hand was if i bend the dog like this vvvv [Linked Image]

Check the spring pin, it may not be seated properly. Then check if the frame is bent. You definitely should not have to bend the dog like that, something is wrong

From that pic it's a guessing game. If in my hands I'd know.
Guess 1, the dog is red
#2 the cross frame is bent

Pic angle from chain hook up side might help.
Can you compare to another adjusted trap?

At one time this was covered in the archives,
I looked and would need a search party to find lol.
