DIRECTIONS

Before you start – PLAN THE LAYOUT OF PLANTS & WATER TUBING TO SOLAR CONTROLLER

1. ASSEMBLE SUPPLIES
   • Water Tubing
   • T-Joint
   • Cup of hot water
   • Soap
   • Scissors
   • Towel

2. MAIN LINE WATER TUBE
   1. Arrange plants at desired positions.
   2. Lay Main Line tubing in front of plants
   3. Mark plant positions on Main Line water tube section (tape or bread ties)
   4. Cut tubing with scissors at plant location
   5. Insert * T-Joints into Main Line water tubing at each plant position.

3. LATERAL LINE
   1. Arrange short Lateral Lines between water Main Line and plants.
   2. Install end of Lateral Line onto Main Line T-Joint
   3. Install Drip-Stake in other end of Lateral Line.
   4. Insert Drip-Stake into plant
   *TIP-** Hot water will soften end of water tube enough to fit over T-Joint barb and tighten as it cools. Lightly soap end of selected T-Joint Dip tube end in hot water 10 -15  seconds. Dry tube end and fingers. Use repeated pushing movements to fit warmed tube end completely over T-Joint barb.

4. SETUP CHECKLIST:
   • Solar Controller must be above plant level and facing sun.
   • Solar Controller buttons must face toward the ground when installed
   • Tube ends must be completely over T-Joint barb
   • Water Container must be below level of plants
   • Water Sensor Probe rests at bottom of water container
   • Be certain your plant containers / trays are LARGE ENOUGH to contain the programmed volume of water and water spillover will not cause damage to surroundings.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Double Beep every minute
until water level restored.
Program Timer resumes after
restoring water.| | 1. Water level Low
2. Water Filter clogged
3. Pump clogged| 1. Add Water to Water Supply Container –
2. Clean Water Filter
3. Inject some warm waterinto the pump inlet with a syringe.
Restart system if needed
Beeping| Green LED Flashing| Drip Stake Clogged.| Clean Drip-Stake
| Red LED
Flashing| Insufficient
Solar Charge| After sunlight charging, Solar Controller returns to programmed MODE

SOLAR CONTROLLER
The unit is equipped with a signal that indicates the solar controller needs to be charged.
When the power of the system is low, the ON/OFF button will flash red. After 30 seconds the red light and the blue LED program light will turn off. At this time the system enters the standby state. Later when exposed to light again and the product gets fully charged the system will automatically return to the working program with the blue LED program light and the system will perform a watering and re-time.

WATER LEVEL SENSOR
The unit is equipped with a sensor that detects the water supply is low or blocked.
When the water level is low the system will alarm. The beeper sounds twice a minute and the MODE button will flash GREEN. At night, the RED indicator light will flash without a beep.
The cause of this may be that the water pump or the filter is blocked. Please clean them. You can unclog the pump by injecting some warm water into the pump inlet with a syringe. (the syringe is not included.)
It may also be that there is no water in the container. Please add water. Program will resume.
After troubleshooting please restart the product, the system will perform a watering and re-time.

ON/OFF button – Program Start
MODE button – Program Interval & Volume — Blue LED on Solar Controller

To Estimate Water Volume per plant: Divide water flow Volume by # Drip- Stakes
400m1/minute x 5 minutes = 2000m1 or 2 liters.| 10
8

5 minutes| 200m1 /8oz.
250m1 / oz.
333m1/
500m1/
1000m1/

Water Volume dispensed is 400 ml / minute.
Water pumps evenly to each Drip-Stake: Example = 4 Liters to 5 Drip-Stakes = 800 ml water dispensed

Unit is equipped with enough water tubing & Drip Stakes to water up to 10 plants.
Reduce number of Lateral
Lines & Drip-Stakes to dispense more water to each plant — see table
Increase number of Lateral
Lines and Drip-Stakes to dispense less water to each plant- see table

Solar Pump dispenses approximately 80z or 400ml per minute. A 5- minute cycle will dispense about 40o0z or 2 liters of water divided among the plant Drip- Stakes
Be certain your plant containers / trays ARE LARGE ENOUGH to contain the programmed volume of water and water spillover will not cause damage to surroundings. To collect excess volumes of water, insert Lateral(s) & Drip- Stake (s) into empty water containers at positions along Main Line
