INSTALL TIMER
Before installing your PC-506 Timer, make sure you
have the following tools and equipment:
• Two #10 screws and mounting anchors
• Screwdriver
• 9-volt battery
• Color-coded, multi-strand, direct burial wire (18-
gauge for runs of less than 800 feet; 14-gauge for
longer runs)
• Wire strippers
Select a Location
NOTE:::::
The PC-506 Timer is for
INDOOR use only. If you must install it
outdoors, use a water-resistant cabinet,
such as the Rain Bird Model TC-2 Timer
Cabinet. The TC-2 is a heavy-duty,
weather-resistant plastic case that lets
you convert any indoor-only timer to
outdoor use.
Select a convenient indoor location within 6 feet
(1.9 m) of a 120-volt AC electrical outlet. The
mounting location should be completely protected
from moisture, direct sunlight, and freezing
temperatures.
