Swing Arm Mounting Technique
Basic model KSF-2XL above holds up to 1.8 gallon
The vertical mounting post is a 2x4 (or can be a 4x4). The lateral arm support is a 2x4. The vertical post can be installed in a bucket full of sand or concrete or can be held in place with concrete blocks or rock formation. The lateral support arm is held in place with a door hinge which allows the arm to swing back and forth for servicing the feeder. The lateral arm is also held outward with a small hook and eyelet on the other side of the hinge. The small vertical feeder mounting board at the end of the arm is a 1x4 about 16 inches long vertically mounted to the lateral arm. It can of course be shorter for just the basic KSF-2 Super Feeder®.

This is only one of many examples of mounting your automatic Super Feeder. The KSF-2 Koi-Pond feeder shown below comes with an "L" bracket and strap, which can be mounted to a vertical 2x4, 4x4 or pipe, or with a lateral metal pole (below), or hung by wire. A round 1-3/8" metal pole as show below makes an ideal mount. Place it next to a waterfall, and the pellets will scatter nicely.
