ATTENTION:

This is a drain-to-waste

Dutch bucket system. As such, it

requires a drain or tank to capture the

nutrient solution that drains from each

Dutch bucket.

Disposal of nutrient solution may be

regulated in your area. Consult the

services of a professional familiar with

local and regional codes to ensure

proper disposal of waste solution.

WARNING:

DO NOT ALLOW THE

PUMP TO RUN WHILE RESERVOIR

IS EMPTY. DAMAGE TO PUMP

WILL OCCUR. MONITOR NUTRIENT

LEVEL AT ALL TIMES.
