3. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to set up your AnseTo Solar Irrigation System.

3.2 Assembly Steps

1. Prepare Tubing: Cut the main water pipe and auxiliary water pipe to the desired lengths using the provided hole punch. Ensure the lengths are appropriate for reaching all plants.
2. Connect Main Pipe: Connect the 5-meter main water pipe to the timer unit's output port. Use the main water pipe clamps to secure connections.
3. Install Tee Joints: Insert tee joints into the main water pipe at points where you intend to branch off to individual plants.
4. Attach Auxiliary Pipes and Drip Arrows: Connect the 30-meter auxiliary water pipe to the tee joints. Attach drip arrows to the ends of the auxiliary pipes and insert them into the soil near the plant roots.
5. Place Water Source: Position a water container (e.g., a bucket) near the timer unit. Place the filter end of the pump hose into the water container, ensuring it reaches the bottom.
6. Connect Solar Panel: Connect the solar panel to the designated input port on the timer unit. Secure the solar panel with its bracket in a sunny location.
7. Install Anti-Siphon Device: Ensure the anti-siphon device is correctly installed to prevent water backflow.
