3. Connect the micro tubing to the converter
barbs by forcing the barb into the end of
the micro tubing. Then, run each length of
micro tubing to the desired location and
insert the brown side of the dripper into
the micro tubing. If insertion is difficult, heat
the end of the micro tubing with warm water
to make it more pliable.
4. Secure the micro tubing near the plants by
attaching a V-stake towards the end of
the micro tubing, taking care to space the
drippers appropriately.
Please see below for additional products to be used with the included 12-outlet
manifold.

1/4” BARB OR ELBOW CONVERTER
A 1/4” converter barb or elbow is used only with the 1/4” micro tubing. The converter
barb has a compression side that is inserted into the drip manifold body. The other side
is a 1/4” barb for 1/4” micro tubing. Depending on your system setup, elbows may be
more effective than straight barbs. Please see below for information needed to order
1/4” converter barbs and elbows.

Pressurize the system and verify that the 12-outlet manifold is functioning properly.
Make any necessary corrections if needed.
When designing a system, we recommend that the maximum length of micro tubing
from each outlet should not exceed 8’-10’. Longer lengths may certainly be achieved,
but please consider the factor of maintenance and aesthetics.
