I ordered this and I got the baffle but no other parts. How does this attach? Do recommend a particular pole it works best with?

There should be a small package in the box with a bracket that attaches to the pole and the baffle rest on it. Without that, there is no way to attach it. It fits poles from 3/4 to 1 and 1/4 inches wide. I would recommend at least a 1 inch metal pole. Hope this helps

ours came with 2 screws & a 'coupler' in a little plastic bag attached. A very large sticker on the baffle had directions, including to contact Audubon.org or 800-274-4201 for more information. You definitely need the screws & coupler. They suggest any 1/2" to 3/8" pole or shepherd hook.

There should be a little metal part that is attached to the baffle with a little zip tie. It is small. It has two screws. You unscrew it and screw it to the pole and the baffle goes on top and sits on it. It makes the baffle wobble if a squirrel tried to climb on it. That is the only other part there is (2 parts total). Very easy to assemble and so far I have no squirrel or raccoon problems! I am very happy! I bought it because it said it would work on a regular Sheppard's hook (which I already had) and they are right it does fit great. The kind you can get at Home Depot or Lowes.

You should have received a 2 part piece that screws together around the pole to hold the baffle up. Pole type shouldn't matter.

Oooh, it appears they made a mistake. There should be a part (coupler, I think they call it) that is fixed around the pole in order for the "cone" not to slide down the pole: tehn you fold closed the cone over the coupler--on which it rests and holds. If the coupler (with its screws) was not in the package, you should complain and have the whole thing replaced or have them ship to you the missing part. Good luck!

The base and pole are separate when shipped, the pole attaches to the base by being screwed on a ~10mm threaded mount (did not actually measure this - from my foggy memory).

Mine was like that too. I thought the handle and pole would work together. I just jammed in up in there as tight as I could. Disappointed that these parts didn't work together.

This baffle is one solid tube which does not split apart. You will need to be able to slide the baffle up from the bottom of the T pole if the T does not disassemble.

I used the one that kinda came with it. It's the pole and netting.....works well!

Yes, unless you're willing to pull the pole out of the ground and slide the baffle up from the bottom. I'm assuming that there's a twist in the pole, but the holding bracket might work if the tolerances are right.

I'm not sure what you mean by "non-wrap around baffle". If you mean a cone-shaped baffle with a hole in the center, the answer is yes. You would just attach it at the time you assemble the pole. A hanging baffle will also work. If this doesn't answer your question, perhaps you can explain "non-wrap around baffle" and if I can help, I'd be happy to try to answer your question.

Probably not. As long as you can remove anything at the top end of the pole to slide the baffle down from the top, you should be good to go.

You probably have them in the wrong order. Maybe you attached the plastic head to the wrong pole. I was a little confused so I lined them up before putting the head on to make sure I had the right one. Instructions left a lot to be desired as well as the poles should have been marked A - top, B - middle and C - end.

My Feeder came with a pole and monting bracket. So you could use your pole and the included bracket or use their pole. However I was not overly impressed with their pole as ability to hold the weight of a full feeder or with stand high winds or snow storms. I used a "shepherds" crock that have had been unsing for years. The feeder comes with a super brack that easily is assembled into the feeder it self, has handled strongs winds with no problem this year. Still the best feeder for me and would buy another next if needed.

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.

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.

I believe it did. My platform feeder is on a 3/4" copper pipe and the baffle mounted quickly and easily. Havent looked at it recently, but I think its just a collar that goes on the post. The baffle just rests on top of ghe collar. It has stopped all raccoons and grey squirrels!!

The pole is about 2" wide. the baffle is about 6-7" wide at the top and about 4" wide at the bottom.

Yes, the hook comes in two pieces and you can install a baffle when assembling the shepherd hook or remove the top later to install it at a later date (the baffle rests on a bracket that is clamped to the pole).

The pole is not included. This only comes with one bracket and clip. You would need to buy two separate brackets and one pole.

If you can slip it over the top of your pole, then do it and tighten the fastener. If there is some impediment at the top of your pole so baffle won't slide onto pole, you'll have to take pole out of ground.
