Follow these steps to properly set up and install your feeder kit.

3.1 Preparing the Feed Container

1. Select a suitable feed container (e.g., bucket, barrel).
2. Mark and drill a 1-1/2 inch hole in the center of the bottom of the feed container. This hole is essential for feed to drop out.
3. Center the included drop funnel over the drilled hole and mark the four mounting holes on the drop funnel.
4. Drill the marked holes with a 1/8 inch drill bit and secure the drop funnel using the provided screws.

3.2 Installing the Feeder Motor and Timer

1. Insert the 10mm bolts and 10mm flanges into the 1/4 inch holes on both sides of the feeder motor housing and tighten.
2. Place the adjustable mounting brackets into the side channels of the feeder motor housing and adjust them to the desired position. The recommended height between the spinner plate and the bottom of the drop funnel is 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch.
3. Tighten the mounting brackets to secure the feeder motor to the feed container using washers and wing nuts.
4. Ensure the spinner plate is directly under the drop hole of the feed container.
5. Connect the timer to the motor. The motor's connector can be directly plugged into the timer.
6. Connect the timer to a 6V battery (not included) or a 12V solar panel (sold separately).
