I'm a little confused .....how do you attach the flag to the pole?

There are Velcro strips that wrap around the base of the flag holder. These things are fabulous and very easy to use.

I am also confused . . there is a small ring that is supposed to slip over the top (I think) but I'll have to force it on. Also the flag we bought has grommets but they are too small to go over the pole. This pole looks sturdy enough, but not very usable. :(

Depends on the type of flag you buy. When I ordered my flag, I assured that it had a sleeve that the flag pole slid into. I don't believe the grommet type would work on this particular pole.

If it is like ours the pole unscrews from the base so you can slip the flag onto the pole.

Not easy...my husband had to drill a hole for the flag then used some glue!

I went to my local hardware store and bought "clips" (attaches to flag gromlets which attaches to pole) and it worked well.

The metal stands are useless, use a small pole and duct tape and make sure the bird x is at least 12 inches long, it should look like a flag when it moves. ( the pole could be a handle off a plunger or a broom handle)

You gotta really manhandle it. The easiest way is to lay it on the ground and insert the poles directly across from the other.

Can loosen all the way out and wrap around pole. I did it alone - am 74 years old farm gal - didn't have a problem. Make sure everything is inserted through the slots. If you need a smaller "hose" clamp, I'd suggest you buy one. That way, you don't have to screw the thing for 15 minutes. I love my flag pole lamp. The light does such a beautiful job of displaying the flag after sundown.

We nailed it to a board and then put it in the ground and covered it with dirt to hold it in place, there should be holes on the bottom of the pole to latch it to something, this worked really well and keeps it from falling over.

Just press both sides of the plastic cover to it. I have this pole and it works pertly to me!!

The pole come out of the box in several pieces. You have to screw it together. It does not collapse.

I will have an adapter that you can use regardless the pole diameter and you don't have to climb and it's mount on the side directly above the flag. Give me 24 hours and I will have on the market! You can see the picture on the customer images, the second on the left all the way to the 2nd row from the bottom!

your mail box should have come with attachments that are designed to hold the flag in place, if none are present, then you should return the item for one that does. there are pieces for this included in the box.

The pole is not included. I would recommend you use a 2" diameter pole that you can cut to the ideal length, and then buy separate decorative pole-ends to cap it with. If the pole is going to go directly from wall-to-wall, then there are plastic wall-mounted pole-enders that help hold the ends from sagging. Even though a 2" diameter pole will fit snugly, it is also a good idea to sand the inside of the pole bracket a little and then use a thin coat of glue just to keep it from rotating. Choose the right type of glue depending on the material of the pole you use. You could probably use double-sided sticky tape as well. I am not sure if you can tell from the pictures, but the actual "U" that the pole sits in is a heavy duty plastic that with the right diameter pole, kind of snaps it in and holds it in place very well. I would recommend a plastic pole because then you can use a plastic glue that will bond very easily. The pole will be held very well without the glue, however, and is probably superfluous. (I just tend to go overboard on some details, haha)

The pole to which the line attaches needs to be ordered also. The piece that forms the top of the "T" is part of the unit w/line. As the line is unwound, the top of the "T" attaches to a special holder on the pole. My wife is very pleased with this setup.

The pole you use is hollow. That metal part (that silver tube extension you see at the top part of the picture) goes into the hollow pole. For me it is self explanatory, I did not look for any directions in the packaging so I don't remember if it had directions (probably not). Note: the hole in the black area is for the hose (the hose does the suction)

There are thumb screws on one side of each of the flag mounts. Tightening those should do the trick.

You need some way to slip it over the pole it does not come a part. Either slide it down from the top or lift it up from the bottom.

keep twisting the pole until the holes match up with the pegs...its a bit tricky...but they are there...

Guess you could attach a wire to the top of a pole and let it dangle. Mine is hanging on a garden arch via a hanging basket hanger. An excellent product.

I purchased the exact same stand and would be happy to help you. I believe the base came intact (at least I think I remember it that way). The square pole with the turning handle on it attaches to the stand with the handle toward the top of the post. The long side of the 90 degree pole slides down into the pole with the turning handle. The turning handle is used to tighten and hole the 90 degree pole. The neck loop attaches to the ring at the top of the 90 degree pole. I found the base a little stiff to turn once it was all put together but I think that's better than having it too loose. I hope these instructions are helpful. Good luck and have fun!
