Step 1 – the cage stand
Attach 1 leg to bottom shelf with screws & nuts, with the nut to the inside. Attach all 4 legs to
the shelf paying attention to the direction of the curls in the stand legs (see photo above) and
seeing that the holes in the tubing are on the topside (to attach the stand basket).
Attach the legs to the top shelf with the remaining screws and nuts. Tighten all bolts.
Insert the black plastic levelers into the bottom of the cage stand, on model 244.
On model #243, this does not apply.
Insert the cage basket by inserting the pins in the basket bottom into the holes in the top of the
cage stand. This will have a snug fit.

Step 2 – the cage
Place the left side of the cage (short side without seed cup doors) inside the cage basket; be sure
the track is facing inward and downward. Attach the back panel of the cage by inserting the
male plastic clip into the female receptor. Repeat with right side and front of cage, making sure
the all 8 clips are in the male/female locked position.
Insert the 2 bottom support bars into the bottom of the cage by placing the wire end resting on
the back of the cage and the claw end to the front of the cage over the support bar on the cage
front. Space the two bars evenly in the cage bottom.
Insert the bottom grille by sliding into top track.
Insert the bottom tray by sliding into the bottom track.
Insert cup s and perch.
Attach cage top by inserting wire ends into the round receptors in the roof for model #243. Then
attach the bent wire clips by applying pressure to cage body and sliding the roof under the clips.
For Model 244, place each section on cage bod y and secure by applying
inward pressure to the side of the cage until the bent wire clips are fastened to the roof section.
Connect in center top by applying pressure to one side and sliding the other section under the
hooks.
Attach the cage handle to the center top and crimp closed with pliers.
Step 3 – the seed guard
Use one short guard and one long guard, attach these two pieces together to form a “V”. Insert
this into one end and side of the cage just above the base of the cage. The guard fits slightly
inside and under the first set of cage wire.
Connect the second end of the guard and fit the connector together. Finish by inserting the final
side of the guard and connect both sides of the guard with the connectors. In order for this to
provide the proper fit and do its job properly, it may take some adjusting.
Your cage should now be ready for your pet bird. Be sure to include lots of toys and change
them out often to keep your pet content.
