Perky-Pet 7103-2 Instructions

FILLING YOUR FEEDER

With the squirrel guard removed, fill each tube with desired seed. The seed divider acts as a storage dome
so be sure to fill it all the way. For model 7103-2 we recommend black oil sunflower as the seed of choice
followed by striped sunflower, safflower, or a premium wild bird mix.

ASSEMBLING YOUR FEEDER

Screw the squirrel guard down on the seed divider. Be careful to not over tighten. A snug fit is all that is
necessary for proper assembly (Fig. 1).

ADJUSTING FLIP-PORTS

Adjusting seed port doors – flip up to feed mixed and sunflower seed and down to dispense Nyjer (thistle)
for finches.

INSTALLING PERCHES

Using a small hammer, gently tap each other perch into small holes located under the feeding ports. Use
care not to hit the perch too hard as you may damage the plastic tube. NOTE: You have the choice to using
the perches. By installing the perches you invite birds such as song sparrows, tree sparrows, white throated
sparrows, evening grosbeaks, grackles, blue jays, etc. to perch and dine. By not using the enclosed perches,
you invite just "clinging birds" such as chickadees, titmice, nuthatches, goldfinches, purple finches, pine
siskins, and a variety of woodpeckers etc. to your feeder.

HANGING YOUR FEEDER

When hanging your feeder from a branch, try and locate it at least 12 feet from any tree trunk or limb
andzat least 4 feet up from the ground (Fig. 2). This will prevent squirrels from either jumping from the tree
or up from the ground onto the feeder. When hanging the feeder off a line, make sure the length of line is
at least 8 inches long with the feeder suspended at least 4 feet above the ground or snow. By using a very
thin wire, such as piano wire, will also help keep squirrels off your feeder.

POLE MOUNTING YOUR FEEDER

This feeder may be mounted on a 1 inch diameter pole. (Not Included). To mount, slide feeder down pole
until the top of pole is inside the opening on bottom of seed dividers (Fig. 3).
