Anybody know what size allen wrench fits the set screw on a metal spinner plate for a Moultrie brand feeder? I have them too big and too small havent found the right one yet.

Thanks
Jeff

I'd call Moultrie at 800-663-3334 and ask one of their technical guys. Their tech support is pretty good, I hear.

That said, I bet the screw is metric. Most American feeders and cameras are jobbed out to China and elsewhere, meaning metric. I have a set of metric allen wrenches, but it won't do you any good here in Dallas. Sorry......

Yea probably metric. You can usually find some cheap ones (like a swiss army knife) under the counter at auto parts stores. Always good to have in your truck.
