Initial Operation - Gardena 1278 Betriebsanleitung

2. INITIAL OPERATION

If the Irrigation Valve is installed below ground
level, it must be installed in a sturdy and step-
proof valve mount 1
Art. 1254 / 1255 / 1290 / 1292.
Install the valve mount [ Fig. I1 / I2 ]:
1. Draw up a plan (see e. g. Fig. I3).
Additional information is provided in the
GARDENA Sprinklersystem Planning Guide
which is available from your GARDENA dealer.
2. For underground installation, place a layer of
2
coarse gravel underneath the valve mount
This ensures proper drainage of the box.
3. Install the valve box with the top edge of the box
at ground level.
This avoids damage when mowing the lawn.
Please refer to the relevant operating instructions
for information on how to install the Irrigation
Valves in GARDENA Valve Boxes V1 and V3.
