Using your product
Plan the watering runs before cutting or connecting. Lay the soaker near the roots at ground level or bury it up to 20cm, as specified by the supplier. Use for garden irrigation, not drinking or hot water. Match pipe sizes and fittings, check operating pressure against the supplied component instructions, and test the layout before covering the hose. Program the timer to suit the planting and check its first watering cycle. Drain and store the timer dry during winter; remove batteries for storage. Supply tap and tools are not included. The supplied parts list defines the kit; extra fittings depend on the chosen layout.
