Follow these steps to set up your RAINPOINT ITP138 watering system:

  1. Mura Orisun Omi: Place a bucket or container of water near your plants. Ensure the container is stable and can hold enough water for your desired watering duration.

  2. Fi Ajọ sii: Attach the filter to one end of the 1/6'' main line tubing. Submerge the filter end into your water source. This prevents debris from entering the pump and drip system.

  3. Connect Tubing to Pump: Connect the other end of the 1/6'' main line tubing to the 'IN' port of the solar irrigation pump. Connect the 1/8'' branch line tubing to the 'OUT' port. Ensure connections are secure to prevent leaks.

  4. Install Anti-Siphon Valve: Insert the anti-siphon valve into the main line tubing, ensuring the larger end is closer to the pump. This prevents water from flowing back into the reservoir when the pump is off.
  5. Route Drip Lines and Emitters: Cut the 1/8'' branch line tubing to desired lengths for each plant. Use the T barb fittings to create branches from the main line. Attach a micro drip emitter to the end of each branch line and insert it into the soil near the base of each plant. Use zip ties to secure tubing as needed.
  6. Gbe Igbimọ Oorun: Mount the solar irrigation pump using the provided ground stake. Adjust the solar panel to face direct sunlight for optimal charging. The panel is 360° adjustable.
