Choose a suitable spot in the garden where the feeding pole can be placed firmly in the ground. Check that the surface is suitable and that there is sufficient space around the bird feeder.

One side of the feeding post is open. Before placing it, decide which side you want this open side to be on. Usually, the open side is placed at the back. The three closed sides then form the visible sides of the feeding post.

Is the ground hard or difficult to penetrate? If necessary, use an earth auger to make installing the feeder post easier. Do not drill too wide, so that the post remains sufficiently stable after installation.

Place the feeding pole straight into the ground and use a spirit level to check that it is level. Then, carefully drive the pole further into the ground using a sledgehammer. Always use a piece of protective wood between the hammer and the feeding pole to prevent damage.

Note: drive the feeding pole deep enough into the ground. The correct depth is important for the firmness and stability of the pole.

Place the base of the bird feeder on the feeder pole. Attach it using the included round-head bolt and nut. Tighten the connection firmly, but avoid damaging the material unnecessarily.

Next, place the roof on the bird feeder and attach it according to the assembly points. After assembly, check that the roof is secure and the bird feeder is standing firmly on the post.

Finally, check that the feeding pole is upright, firmly in the ground, and that the feeder is properly attached. The CORTEN Feeding Pole is then ready for use.
