seleCTing aRboRPlUgs and dRill biTs Select Arborplugs based on tress size and type: • For trees of small to medium size and density use #3 (9/32”) Arborplugs. • For large or dense-wooded trees and conifers use #4 (3/8”) Arborplugs. Arborplug Size Drill Bit Size 9/32”... -
Page 10: Setting The Arborplugs
seTTing The aRboRPlUgs 1. Set Arborplugs into drilled holes using Set Tool (from kit) and hammer. 2. Make sure the barbs on the Too Deep Too Shallow Arborplug make a seal between the xylem and the inner bark as illustrated. -
Page 11: Procedure: Conifers Vs. Deciduous
Important Note For Conifer Injections: Sap flows out of conifers as a protective response to drilling. For best results, make sure the QUIK-jet Air is inserted and the mi- cro-injection occurs immediatly after the Arborplug is set. Drill, plug, and inject one site at a time. If too much time has passed between Arborplug setting and QUIK-jet Air application, sap may flow into your injection site and make your uptake slower. -
