Step-by-Step Assembly Guide (General Instructions)
While exact steps vary by model, the general assembly process usually follows these steps:
-
Attach the Perches: Begin by securely attaching the perches to the base. This is usually done by screwing them in or fitting them into pre-drilled holes. Ensure they are firmly in place and evenly spaced.
-
Secure the Seed Tray/Container: Carefully fit the seed tray or container onto the base, making sure it's properly aligned and stable. Some models might require screws or clips for this step.
-
Connect the Roof/Cover: Attach the roof or cover to the base and/or seed container. This step often involves inserting the roof into slots or securing it with screws. Ensure the roof is securely fixed to protect the seed from rain and snow.

Inspect and Finalize: Once all components are connected, carefully inspect the entire structure for stability and alignment. Make sure all parts are securely fastened and there are no loose pieces.
