How do I clean the feeder?

Troubleshooting

Feed access is difficult

Ensure the magnetic doors are properly aligned and not obstructed. Clean the door edges and magnetic strips if they are dirty.

Feeder appears to be rusting

Although galvanized steel is weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to moisture and salt may cause minor surface rust. Wipe dry immediately after exposure to damp conditions. For minor rust spots, a gentle scrub with a non-abrasive cleaner may help.

Feeder is unstable

Ensure the feeder is placed on a flat, level surface. If necessary, use shims to stabilize it. Check for any damage to the base.

Feed is getting wet outdoors

While weather-resistant, the feeder is not entirely waterproof. Ensure the doors are closed securely. Consider placement in a more sheltered area if persistent rain is an issue.
