9. MOUNTING CAMERA
• Thread mounting strap through slots on back of camera case.
• Mount camera to a tree or pole approximately three (3) feet
from ground. You may need to adjust for uneven terrain.

a Master Lock Python™ cable locking system. Or you can use
the 1/4”-20 mount with the Moultrie EZ Tree Mount or Camera
Stake accessories. Visit MoultrieFeeders.com to purchase
these mounting accessories.
Tips for Best Photos:
• Face the camera North or South to avoid overexposure from the sun.
• Clear brush away from the front of the camera to avoid
false-movement triggers.
