INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:

Begin by unrolling the 100 foot coil of pipe,

making sure not to kink the pipe in the

process.

Step 2:

Let the pipe rest in the sun for 15-30

minutes, which will make it easier to form

into place.

Step 3:

Starting from one end, cut the pipe into four

20-foot sections and two 10-foot sections.

You should have the exact amount to do

this. This allows for 20-foot spacing of

sprinkler heads, which will give proper head

to head coverage.

Step 4:

Lay out the pipe in the approximate location

of each section. Don’t worry if the pipe still

stays coiled, it will straighten as fittings are

attached.

Step 5:

Lay out the fittings next to their general

connection points.

Step 6:

In this step, attach the hose swivel adaptor

to the eco-lock pipe adaptor. Then connect

one of the 24-inch sections of pipe to the

transition adaptor by twisting while pressing,

and then connecting the timer. Finally,

attach on the other end a ¾-inch tee,

followed by one of the 10-foot lengths of

pipe.

Step 7:

Cut the other 24-inch section of pipe into

four, 6-inch sections, then attach an elbow

to the other end of the 10-foot section,

followed by a 6-inch piece.

Step 8:

Moving down the line, attach a threaded

tee, followed by the first 20-foot section.

Another threaded tee, and a second 20-foot

section, then a final threaded tee, 6-inch

section and threaded elbow.

Step 9:

in this step we attach sprinklers by first

attaching the ½-inch riser to the bottom of

the sprinkler and slipping the retaining loop

over the sprinkler before threading on to the

fitting. Position the sprinkler and hold up

with staked loop.

Next we thread on the auto-drain valve.

Repeat this for the remaining fittings,

sprinklers and drain valve on the other side.

Step 10:

We’re now ready to test the system. Run a

manual program on the timer, being aware it

may take up to 30 seconds for the lines to

pressurize. Assure all sprinklers are

spraying and that there are no leaks.

Step 11:

Next, adjust the sprinklers to their desired

patterns. For more information on how to

adjust your sprinklers, please see the video

linked above.

Step 12:

Starting in the corners, dig a trench about

four inches wide and 4-6 inches deep,

pulling up the grass as you go. Place the

pipe into the trench, burying it as you go.

Pay attention that the sprinklers are nearly

flush to the ground.

Remove any excess soil. Your system

should now be ready to go. The grass

should heal within a matter of weeks.
