To evacuate the air from the 

feeding tube open the adjust-

ment screw by turning it anti-

clockwise. Water will now run 

out of the drip tube which must 

extend about 8 cm out of the 

Watering Sensor 

(E)

. Then 

close the adjustment screw 

again, turning it slowly clock-

wise and leaving just one drop 

of water sitting on the drip tube. 

Then close the adjustment 

screw further, turning it by an-

other 2 arrows (1/4 turns) clock-

wise 

(F)

. The Watering Sensor 

must not release any water if 

the soil is wet.

CHECKS

After installation check the 

water discharge for about 1-2 

weeks and, if necessary, adjust 

the setting by opening (more 

water) or closing (less water). 

In most cases the setting will 

only need to be adjusted by 

1/2 

an arrow (G).

IMPORTANT: 

All the Watering Sensors must be “closed” before 

adjusting the setting. Turn on the tap. There must be no drips 

coming from anywhere.

REQUIRED QUANTITY OF WATERING SENSORS

One Watering Sensor will water a diameter of 

approx. 20-25 cm of soil.

A

 e.g. to water balcony flower boxes: 

100 cm [39”] in length: min. 4 Watering Sensors 
80 cm [32”] in length: min. 3 Watering Sensors 
 60 cm [24”] in length: min. 2 Watering Sensors

C

Distribution drippers can also be used in rel-

atively 

large pots, containers or beds

 instead of 

additional watering sensors. One Watering Sen-

sor and 5 distribution drippers will water an area 

measuring 40 cm in width and 50 cm in length.

Up to 25 cm [10”] Ø: 1
