Connecting drip distributor to
plants (Fig. F-G)
1. Slide the thin hose (6) over one of the connec-
tions on the drip distributor (10).
2. If you don't want to use all the connections,
put a cover cap (9) onto each unused con-
nection.
3. Insert a hose bracket (11) vertically at the
point where you want to water a plant.
4. Slide the hose (6) into the opening on the
hose bracket (11) so that the hose is pointing
downwards.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 until all plants are connected
to drip distributors.

Using the irrigation system

• Make sure that the water tank is always filled
with sufficient water.
• If the plants are placed lower than the water
level in the water tank, water may leak out.
Make sure that the plants are elevated
(Fig. H).
1. Check how much water your plants require for
the time you will be away. Remember that the
actual amount of water needed will be slightly
more due to possible evaporation. If the water
tank supplied is not large enough, use a
larger container, e.g. a large bucket.
2. Fill the water tank (1) with sufficient water.
3. Place the pump (3) on the bottom of the water
tank (1). The pump must be level.
4. Connect the pump (3) cable to the power unit
(4) cable.
5. Close the water tank (1) with the cover
(2). Ensure that the hoses and the cable go
through the openings provided.
6. Plug the power unit (4) into a socket. The con-
trol indicator on the power unit lights up green
and irrigation starts for one minute.
7. Check all hoses, particularly the hose connec-
tions, for leaks.
Note: The power unit has a built-in timer. Auto-
matic irrigation will repeat daily at the same time
that the power unit is connected.
8. To stop automatic irrigation, disconnect the
power unit (4) from the socket.
Disassembling the irrigation
system
1. Disconnect the power unit (4) from the socket.
2. Take the pump (3) out of the water tank (1).
3. Unscrew the screw sleeves (7) from the pump
(3) connections and remove the hoses (5).
4. Unscrew the screw sleeves (7) from the drip
distributor (10) connections and remove the
hoses (5).
5. Remove the hose brackets (11) from the plants
and remove the hoses (6).
6. Remove the hoses (6) from the drip distributors
(10).
7. Make sure that all parts are completely dry
before they are stored.
