This complete kit comes with a 100-ft Roll of 1/2-in Poly tubing (MLT-72), a 100-ft Coil of 1/4-in Vinyl Tubing (MLT-B100B), a Hose Fitting (MLF-33), a 40 PSI Pressure Regulator (MLA-40PR), a Faucet Filter (MLFF-41), an All In One Hole Punch Tool (MLA-TOOL), 8 Goof Plugs (MLA-51G), 2 1/2-in Poly Tees (MLF-34), a 1/2-in Poly Coupling (MLF-36), 2 1/2-In End Fittings with Removable Cap (MLF-ENDCAP), 2 1/2-in Poly End Crimpers (MLA-50), 10 1/2-in Poly Support Stakes (MLA-57), 30 1/4-in Couplers (MLT-BXB), 25 1/4-in Tees (MLT-TEE), and a 10 1/2-in Elbows (MLT-ELB), and a Bonus Pack of 3 Micro Spray Pot Stakes (MLS-POTSTK), and 30 newly designed Adjustable Dripper Stakes (MLD-STA).
Adjust Dripper Stakes to Drip or Spray water by turning the dial from 0 -10 GPH and releasing drops of water, up to spraying 8 individual streams of water in up to a 2-ft diameter Full Circle Spray. These Newly designed Stakes come with a New 'hard stop" cap that will not come off easily if it is rotated to a fully open position. The Tops can be removed. To do so, once the Top is in the fully open position, simply twist the Top with more force in a “ counter clockwise” motion to remove it. To reassemble, use force pushing the Top back on while also turning it in a “clockwise” motion until you feel it catch the threads.
Use one of the 1/4-in Couplers (MLT-BXB) to run the 1/4-in Vinyl to the top of the pot where you would install one of the Adjustable Dripper Stakes to water the plants inside the pot. If you want to run a string of 1/4-in Vinyl to several Stakes to water several pots, use the included 1/4-in Vinyl Tee Fittings (MLT-TEE).
Use the included All-In-One Hole Punch Tool (MLA-TOOL) to assist in installing the 1/4-in Coupler into the 1/4-in Vinyl and to punch a hole into the side of the 1/2-in Poly Tubing.
ORDER OF INSTALLATION
Order of installation is critical for proper system function. Some parts mentioned here are NOT included in this kit but can be purchased separately. This is the order in which parts should be installed, starting from an outdoor faucet.
1) Check your outdoor faucet to make sure there is an attached or built-in Brass Anti-Siphon Vacuum Breaker that’s designed to prevent the backflow of fluids back into the potable/drinking water system.
2) A Metal "Y" Fitting is suggested so you can still attach your garden hose.
4) Pressure Regulator: When using these Dripper Stakes, we suggest using our 40 PSI Pressure Regulator (MLA-40PR). (Included in kit) 5) A 150 Mesh Filter (MLFF-41) is suggested for Dripper Stakes and Drippers or when using our products with "well" water. (Included in kit) 6) Use the 1/2-in Faucet Hose Fitting (MLF-33) to attach to the side of the filter and to connect the 1/2-in Poly Tubing. (Included in kit)
