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 cups and perch.
Attach cage top by taking the large top section and placing it above the cage wire and gently
apply pressure to the cage body to insert the roof mesh under the bent wire clips. Be sure that all
four clips have the roof mesh under them and this is secure.
Use the same method to secure the bottom roof section to the cage making sure that the two roof
sections are in tight alignment whe re they meet in the center of the cage (the bottom section fits
slightly under the top section)
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 ca ge 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.
