After installing your feeder kit onto your hopper, insert the internal funnel into the hopper, letting the self-alignment ring lock it into place at
the bottom of the hopper cone.
NOTE: Make sure internal funnel is fully seated at hopper exit, and placed at
the very bottom of the hopper. Funnel alignment is critical to proper feeder operation.
Insert the remaining leg sections into the (4) top-leg sections.
Tap rmly on the end of the legs when joining leg sections; this
