1. Pregătirea site-ului
- Identify the desired location for the rotor, ensuring it provides adequate coverage for the area.
- Dig a trench from the main water line to the rotor location, ensuring it is deep enough to bury the pipe below the frost line (if applicable) and prevent damage.
2. Connecting the Rotor
- Asigurați-vă că alimentarea cu apă este oprită înainte de a începe instalarea.
- Thread the 3/4" inlet of the K5 Select rotor onto the riser pipe. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench for a snug fit, being careful not to overtighten.
- Position the rotor so that the top is flush with the ground level once the trench is backfilled.
