Timed Watering
Turn the dial clockwise and align the desired number of minutes with the TIME INDICATOR. To turn off before time runs out, rotate the dial back to "0" and push up on the release lever to turn off.
Manual (Non-Timed) Watering
Depress the RELEASE LEVER and rotate the dial counter-clockwise to “Manual On”. Water will stay on unless you turn it off. Rotate back to “0” and push up on the release lever to turn water off.
Product Description
The Orbit PROFLO™ hose-end timer is a mechanical device designed to control garden watering. It features a prominent dial on the top for setting watering durations, with clear minute markings (e.g., 15, 30, 45, 60) and a TIME INDICATOR pointer.
A key component is the RELEASE LEVER, also referred to as "Palanca de Liberación" in Spanish. This lever is used to manually engage or disengage the water flow. Pushing it up typically turns the water off.
The timer's body is constructed from durable, silver-toned metal, providing a robust feel. The dial and base are made of black plastic. The unit connects directly to standard garden hoses via threaded fittings, one for the inlet and one for the outlet.
