3. ٽيوبنگ سيٽ اپ

The system utilizes 4mm main line tubing and 3mm branch line tubing to ensure even water distribution and minimize pressure loss.

1. ٽيوبنگ تيار ڪريو: Plan your drip watering layout. Cut the 4mm main line tubing to the desired lengths for connecting plants. For easier installation, soak the cut tubing ends in boiling water for 10 seconds to soften them.
2. فلٽر ڳنڍيو: Insert the filter into one end of the 4mm main line tubing. Place the filter end into your water container.
3. پمپ سان ڳنڍيو: Connect the 4mm main line tubing (with filter) to the 'IN' port of the auto watering pump.
4. Install Anti-Siphon Valve: Connect the anti-siphon valve to the 'OUT' port of the pump. Ensure the valve is installed correctly according to the water flow direction (indicated by arrows on the valve). This prevents backflow and siphoning.
5. Branching Tubing: Use T-barb fittings to split the 4mm main line tubing into 3mm branch lines for individual plants. For splitting into more than two directions, use the cross barb fitting.
6. Install Drip Emitters: Attach the 3mm micro drip emitters to the end of each branch line. Insert the emitters at least 3 inches deep into the soil at the base of each plant to ensure water reaches the roots effectively.
7. Secure Tubing: Use zip ties or the detachable mounting hook to secure the tubing and pump as needed.
