OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Once a suitable, sturdy location for the feeder is
identified and the unit is properly hung, open lid and
fill container with feed to desired capacity, never to
exceed 25 lbs.
Once done, close the lid securely to insure it does
not come off in the event of high winds, etc.
This unit is designed to be used primarily with 1/4"
or smaller fish food. This unit is not intended to
be used with a wide variety of other type feeds.
The unit can accommodate other types of feed
but depending on both the brand and type of feed
being used, you may encounter instances whereby
the feed/seed may bridge or clog over the funnel
opening leading to the power control unit. In the
event that this happens, you can clear the bridge
manually, but it is then recommended to use
1/4" or smaller fish food with this feeder and not
alternative of feed products that may be more
affected by moisture.
Each and every feeder design endures a rigorous
field-test routine prior to coming to market, but no
feeder can address all the environmental and feed
type variations. With this being said, consider all the
factors when operating this feeder and be sure to
assess all of your environmental factors thoroughly.
PAgE 4
GENERAL SAFETY
Always make sure that the unit is hung from a
sturdy source before you fill the hopper with any
feed. If the unit is not hung from a sturdy source
and the hopper is full, you run the serious risk
of the unit falling and causing harm to both you
and the product itself. Always exercise caution
and care when loading/filling the unit with feed
material. Please make sure that the unit is properly
supported so there is no chance of anyone getting
hurt.
SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE
To insure proper functionality and a long life, BA
Products strongly recommends that you service your
feeder at least once every year.
The Model #ADF-25DX should have the hopper
thoroughly cleaned out at least once a year. Some
feed/seed types have the tendency to cake and
may build up over time, thus reducing overall hopper
capacity, clogging feed flow or generally interfering
with the overall functionality of the feeder unit.
It is also important to check the bolts located at
the hopper flange regularly to insure that they are
securely tightened and have not come lose. With
prolonged use in the field, animals and other forces
may exert force against the feeder unit which may
cause certain components of the feeder unit to
loosen.
