Operating Instructions
Innovative Rotating Feeder:
The kennel features an innovative rotating feed rack with two stainless steel bowls. This design allows you to feed your pets without needing to open the main door, minimizing the risk of escape and ensuring pet safety. Simply rotate the feeder from outside the kennel to access the bowls for filling or cleaning.

Secure Door Lock System:
The main entrance is equipped with a humanized door lock design that is both simple to use and highly secure. This lock prevents pets from opening the door by pushing, ensuring they remain safely contained within the kennel. For added security, the lock mechanism also includes a provision for an external padlock (not included).
Weather Protection:
The waterproof roof cover is designed to protect your pets from various weather conditions. It covers the top and three sides, offering defense against rain, wind, snow, and harmful UV rays. The peaked roof design facilitates water runoff, preventing accumulation.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will extend the life and ensure the hygiene of your BouPower Outdoor Dog Kennel.
- Cleaning: The smooth surfaces of the metal frame and mesh panels are easy to clean. Use a mild soap solution and water to wipe down surfaces. For thorough cleaning, the kennel can be rinsed with a hose. Ensure all cleaning agents are pet-safe and rinsed completely.
- Roof Cover Care: Periodically inspect the waterproof roof cover for any tears or damage. Clean the cover with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the material.
- Hardware Check: Regularly check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Tighten any loose hardware to maintain the kennel's structural integrity.
- Rust Prevention: The iron guardrails are treated for rust resistance. However, inspect for any signs of rust, especially in areas where the coating might be scratched, and apply appropriate rust-preventative paint if necessary.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your BouPower Outdoor Dog Kennel, consider the following common solutions:
- Instability: Ensure all frame connections are securely tightened. Verify that the ground nails are fully inserted into the ground. Uneven ground can also contribute to instability; consider leveling the area or placing shims under the base.
- Water Accumulation on Roof: Confirm the roof cover is properly stretched and secured to the frame, allowing for proper water runoff. The peaked design should naturally shed water.
- Door Not Latching: Check for any obstructions in the latch mechanism. Ensure the door frame is properly aligned with the main kennel frame.
