CONTAINER PLANTS AND SHRUBS

Replacing hand watering with Drip-Irrigation
1 Connect an 8-Port or a 4-Port Adjustable Manifold to an exposed shrub
riser. If a vacant riser is not available, use a Saddle Adapter to connect to the
sprinkler line.
2 Remove Caps and attach 1/4" Distribution/Supply Line to each 1/4"
Barb.
3 Run each 1/4" Distribution/
Supply Line to each container. Use
1/4" Tube Straps to hold tube in
place. (Window boxes and large
containers may require more than
one line.)
IMPORTANT: A single 1/4"
Distribution/Supply Line should
not exceed 30'.
4 Flush lines to clear any debris.
