Configuração e instalação

Instruções de suspensão

Hang the feeder securely using appropriate wall brackets, branch hooks, or extension hooks.

Importante:

To ensure effective squirrel deterrence, position the feeder with at least 16 inches (40 cm) of clearance from any nearby surfaces (e.g., walls, branches, poles). This prevents squirrels from reaching the feeder from a foothold without placing their weight on the feeder, which is necessary to activate the closing mechanism.

Operação

Enchendo o Alimentador

The feeder has a capacity of up to 0.75 quarts (1.3 pounds) of bird seed. To fill, detach the top section and pour in your preferred bird seed, such as Black Oil sunflower seed or other suitable blends.

Squirrel Buster Technology

The feeder incorporates a patented weight-activated mechanism. When a squirrel attempts to access the seed ports, its weight causes the outer shroud to automatically lower, closing access to the seed. This system effectively blocks squirrels without causing them harm.

Small birds can feed without triggering the mechanism. Additionally, a negative grip tube prevents squirrels from hanging from the wire hanger to bypass the closing mechanism.

Seed Ventilation System

An integrated seed ventilation system allows hot, moist air to escape through vents at the top of the feeder, while fresh air enters through the seed ports and openings at the bottom of the seed tube. This design helps maintain seed freshness for longer periods.

Solução de problemas

Squirrels Still Accessing Seed

  • Liberação: Ensure the feeder has at least 16 inches (40 cm) of unobstructed clearance from any nearby surfaces (e.g., walls, branches, poles). Squirrels are highly resourceful and can bypass the weight-activated mechanism if they can reach the feeder from a stable foothold.
  • Feeder Location: Re-evaluate the feeder's placement. If squirrels are jumping onto the feeder from a distance, consider moving it to a more open area.

Seed Not Dispensing

  • Blockages: Check for any blockages in the seed ports. Seed can sometimes clump due to moisture or debris.
  • Seed Type: Ensure the seed type is appropriate for the feeder. Larger seeds or mixes with excessive fillers might cause obstructions.
  • Limpeza: If blockages persist, disassemble and clean the feeder thoroughly to remove any accumulated residue.

Perches Seem Unstable

  • The perches are designed to have a slight swing. Ensure they are correctly seated in their designated slots. If a perch is damaged, contact customer support for assistance.
