  - Line up the main body of the feeder with the  red clasps in the base, turning it clockwise to secure it firmly
- Assemble the flexible rain shield – see  below!*
- Place the rain shield on top of the feeder,  align slots around the handle and push into place
- Insert one end of the metal handle into the  hole on the top outside edge of the feeder, then do the same on the other side
- Align the slots of the lid with the edges of  the handle and push into place
- Unfold the legs from underneath the feeder 
Add plenty of naturally nutritious Feathers & Beaky food and pop it  into your chicken run!
*Assembling your flexible  rain shield
  If this is the FIRST time,  follow these instructions… 
  - place the LEFT edge of the shield over the  RIGHT edge
- insert the tabs into the corresponding slots
- turn the shield inside out – so that the side  that was on top is now underneath – whilst this isn’t essential, it will help  to ensure that the rain shield has a uniform shape, following transportation
If you’ve done it at least  once before, follow these instructions (they’re slightly different)…
  - place the right edge of the flexible rain  shield over the left edge
- insert the tabs into the corresponding slots
Taking  your feeder apart 
If food has become impacted in the bottom of your feeder you may find it easier to soak it for a couple of minutes first. 
  - Push the metal handle downwards away from the  lid
- Pull the lid off
- Remove one end of the metal handle from its  hole, then the other end
- Pull the rain shield off, push the tabs out  of their slots to open the shield
- Hold the main body of the feeder with one  hand and the base with the other hand, push firmly towards each other and turn  anti-clockwise to separate the main body from the base
