Hunting Equipment Upkeep, Hanging Feeder Repair

The feeder that I got from Richard at The Hog Zone has been raped by the tree rats, I need to repair it so I wont loose my corn and the hogs will keep coming in. I recomend you do this fix to your hanging feeder before you start to use it. Why wait?

I use a boat wrench as well. I put short legs on the bottom of the feeder to keep the feeder motor from hitting the ground. And yes found out the same way you did that you must tie off the handle. The short legs have saved my timer many times. Next time I'm at the property I'll video my feeders.

@fad10507 works great doesnt it? I didnt add legs cause this one came without em, plus I can fill it hanging

Great idea, but I think you can get away with not even using the silicone since the ring can hold it on with the lid yeah?

On the winch I see what you mean on that one lol.

@Labyrnthdom I want it to seal out the moisture as well

Hope your glue didn’t squeeze out and seal down your lock ring ! ! !

@aaeonfluxx2 it may have but it will come loose easy enough
