- Page 8 Connect Callibration - Coupling Ball Valve The CBV connection must be calibrated to the flow rate of your irrigation system. If the irrigation system is higher flow, primarily compsed of spray heads or larger drip irrigation zones, adjustment to the CBV may not be required.
- Page 9 Connect Callibration - Coupling Ball Valve Set flow adjustment Set the flow rate by adjusting the adjustment knob to the proper setting. Slow Setting - is used for normal and most common setting in regions with high watering requirements such as hot dry climates or sandy soils. #1 Setting - is used for normal maintenance in regions with more moderate climates and moderate watering schedules where soils have good moisture retention.

Page 10: Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions How much product to put into the tank? Refer to the product label and tank capacity. The system feeds very slowly and it is difficult to over fertilise when using the system properly. Typical rates are 1 litre of liquid per 200 m of landscape per month and 1 Kg of dry powder fertilizer per 200 m of landscape per month. - Page 11 Frequently Asked Questions Will I over fertilise? No. When the unit is set on the maintenance (slow) setting it feeds in small amounts. It applies less fertiliser over the same period of time than applying in large amounts once every 6 weeks. Will the system clog drip irrigation? No.
- Page 12 Quick Refill Guide Turn off the water using the shut off valves, both valves must be closed On Position Off Position Off Off Disconnect tubing from both sides Collet Pull tubing Press Collet Hold pressure Unscrew cap & pour out water or open drain valve (EZO10-FX) The systen will be full of fresh water when fertiliser is gone.
