Installing Drip Tape and Plastic
See Operating Manuel for adjustments
Drip Tape: Remove the plate with a locking clamp(A). Slide drip rolls
onto the rod, press plate(A) tight against the roll, and tighten the tee
handle on the clamp. Feed drip tape through the swing arm guide and stationary
guide(B) then into the down pipe(C).
Note; Turn drip emitters up toward plastic for less clogging, and to
avoid damaging drip tape with the press pan, adjust down pipe about 1- 2”
below the plastic mulch. Also, make sure the drip roll is compressed firmly
between plates for a positive braking effect.
Plastic: Place plastic rolls on top of rollers(A). Pull the end of
plastic down in between rollers and underneath the bottom roller(B). Secure
plastic and drip tape at end of the row. Only feed from one roll at a time
.
