Troubleshooting
Feeder lid is difficult to open
Ensure there is no debris stuck in the hinge or closure mechanism. Gently try to clear any obstruction. If stiff, a small amount of silicone lubricant on the hinge might help (ensure it does not contaminate food areas).
Fat balls are not staying in the feeder
Confirm that the feeder is correctly assembled and the lid is securely closed. Ensure the fat balls are standard size and fit appropriately within the feeder's dimensions.
Feeder finish is dulling
Clean the feeder with mild soap and water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals. Over time, slight fading of the finish in direct sunlight is normal for outdoor products.
