FYI, the factory setting on the TH feeder is 3/8" gap between the bottom of the food hopper and the flat area in the middle of the spin plate. If the food hopper has one side that is a bit lower than all the rest, measure from that one.

Easy way to do that is glue together enough washers to make 3/8". Use ones small enough to fit through the hole on the bottom of the feed hopper. Put it in the hopper and let it rest on the spin plate. Move it to the side, slide spin plate up, tighten it down, then remove the washers with a piece of stiff wire with a 1/2" or so long 90� bend at the end.

On my "to do" list this Spring is make a detailed set of instructions on how to adjust the spin plate and put it on my website.
