1. The stainless steel spinner plate is easily
adjusted up or down to accommodate different types and amounts of feed.
Adjustments can be made even when the feeder is full. Emptying the feeder
is simply done by removing the spinner plate. Adjusting the amount of
feed disbursed during a spin cycle can be done by adjusting the timer
or by lowering the spinner plate (more feed) or raising the spinner
plate (less feed). The Stainless steel spinner plate comes with gate
plates that will stop the spinner plate from spinning during high winds.
2. The high performance 12-volt motor has a 5/16”
x 6” stainless steel shaft, and spins at 2800 RPM with 10lb of
torque, it draws less than 4 amps, which extends the battery life, eliminating
the additional cost of a solar panel. The motor enables the feeder to
produce an even spread pattern of up to 120 feet in diameter. Larger
spread patterns allow more animals and a wider variety of different
animals to feed without competing with each other and holds the animals
in the area longer. The motor is so efficient that feed does not pile
up under the feeder because it starts and stops immediately.
3. A uniquely designed high impact black ABS
funnel fits perfectly in the barrel, and extends beneath the feeder.
The funnel eliminates feed from collecting and becoming trapped in the
feeder, which will eventually mold. The funnel also allows you to refill
the feeder at your convenience, leaving no lapse in your feeding program.
4. The rigid 19-gauge steel drum barrel (18 gauge
on the 375lb feeders) is made with quality. It is coated inside with
a baked-on phenolic epoxy base-coat. The exterior is then painted with
a gray rust proof primer, then finished with Sherwin Williams Ennis-green
exterior paint to protect it from the suns UV rays, ensuring years of
service.
5. The patented design of the feeders keeps animals
like squirrels and raccoons away from the feed. Eliminating the additional
cost of varmit guards.
6. The heavy-duty latches and all the hardware
(nuts, bolts, and washers) are made of rust proof stainless steel. In
fact, the washers are rubber coated on one side to insure a tight seal.
7. The plastic battery box is securely mounted
inside a heavy duty galvanized frame and is designed to protect all
electrical components from making contact with metal, and will assist
in keeping them dust free, and clean.
8. All of our components are mounted internally
to help shield them from all weather conditions.
9. The superior electronics of this feeder are
designed for worry-free and simple operation. The digital timer comes
with 6 different feed cycles and will spin from 3 to 59 seconds. Each
spin cycle can be programmed independently. The test button has a 4
second delay and will spin for 10 seconds. If you forget, and leave
the timer in a program position or any of the feed cycles 1-6 the timer
will automatically revert to the clock setting so that the timer will
continue to operate normally. The same goes for the run times in the
feed cycles. If you were to forget to set the runtime, the timer will
automatically run for a minimum of three seconds. The digital timer
come fully wired and has a connection terminal for a remote receiver.
10. The galvanized lid is designed to shed water,
not hold water. It is held in place by three easy on/off stainless steel
latches. The lid is sealed to the barrel with a molded rubber gasket
to protect your feed from rain and moisture.
11. Our feeders come complete with a free premium
grade 12v rechargeable battery that will last 14-16 months on a single
charge. Recharging the battery every 12 months with a proper charger
will help extend the life of the battery.
12. A limited lifetime warranty on the motor
and a limited 2-year warranty on all other components (rubber gasket,
lid clips, and battery have a one year warranty).
Fish Feeder
All Castaway fish feeders come with all the features
of the Castaway Features 1-12 Plus.
Castaway Fish feeders come with 3 individual
black powder coated legs with attached feet for dock mounting. The high
performance motor has a 6” x 5/16” stainless steel shaft
that is braced with a special oil light bronze bushing made with impregnated
oil allowing the shaft to spin without friction. A specially designed
shield on the fish feeder partially covers the spinner plate, giving
you an even 160-degree spread pattern and prevents feed from being disbursed
on your dock.
125lb Shoreline Fish Feeder
Castaway Shoreline Fish Feeders come complete
with 18 gauge black powder coated galvanized steel legs. Each leg is
assembled in two sections with a 6” interlocking swage to provide
additional strength. The legs are constructed and mounted at the proper
angle, so that 2/3 of the feeder is below center of gravity, which maximizes
the stability of the feeder. The feeder comes with ground anchors that
attach to the legs to enhance stability even further. The high performance
motor has a 6” x 5/16” stainless steel shaft that is braced
with a special oil light bronze bushing made with impregnated oil allowing
the shaft to spin without friction. The specially designed shield partially
covers a round spinner plate, giving you an even 160-degree spread pattern.
