OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Once a suitable location for the feeder is identified
and the unit is in place, remove lid and fill container
with feed/seed to desired capacity.
Read the timer unit instructions carefully in order
to set the current time, feed times and feed time
durations as per your requirements.
Please refer to the timer operating instructions for
the respective power control unit to identify exactly
how to operate the power control unit.
Once the time, feed times and feed time durations
have been set, run the power control in test
mode to insure the settings meet your feeding
requirements.
GENERAL SAFETY
Be very careful when operating the unit. This
directional power control unit dispenses feed in a
pie shape pattern at a high velocity and can cause
serious bodily damage if not careful. Keep head and
eyes clear of spinner plate and feed dispersement
area when the unit is running.
Always make sure that the unit is placed on level
ground/surface and is level before you fill the
hopper with any feed/seed. If the unit is not level
and the hopper is full, you run the serious risk of
the unit tipping over 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 you and the unit are 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.
This feeder 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.
DISCLAIMERS

or injury caused by the unauthorized use of,
alterations to, improper connection of and abuse or
neglect of the BA Products’ feeder system.
Never lean a ladder against the feeder when filling.
You must always use an alternative method to fill
