WIRING THE ELECTRIC VALVES
• If the distance between the timer and valve is
300m2 or less then 1mm thick connection wire
is suitable. For added protection, the wires can
be pulled through and buried with PVC pipe.
Be careful to not bury wires in locations where
they can be damaged by digging or trenching
in the future.
• Each valve has two wires. One wire is to be
connected as the common. The common wires
for all the valves can be connected together to
one common wire

going to the timer. The other valve wire is to be
connected to the specifi c station wire that will
control that valve
• All wires should be joined together using wire
nuts, solder, or vinyl tape. For additional protec-
tion, use WaterMaster grease cap to waterproof
connections
• To avoid electrical hazards, only one valve
should be connected to each station (Note:
Only one wire can be installed into each termi-
nal. If more than two common wires are used
in your system, splice several together so only
one wire runs into each of the COM terminals.
Protect the splice connection with a wire nut.)
CONNECTING VALVE WIRES TO THE
TIMER
• Remove the terminal compartment cover.
• Strip _" (6mm) of the plastic insulation off the
end of each wire.
• Determine which valve you want to connect
to which station. Connect each valve wire to its
station terminal (labeled 1-6) by inserting the
bare wire fully into
the terminal.
