Establish a starting
point by tieing a 50 foot piece of string to your faucet. (Note: the total
length of the LawnBelt hose is 50 feet) Tie your string to this stake and proceed to the next head in your plan. Repeat until you have reached the last head location. Later on this string will act as a guide for locating the slit in your lawn.
The shape of Lawn
Belt has a thick top flange on the top and then tapers to a point . Install
the pointed end down first making sure LawnBelt is vertical (not slanted)
in the ground. |
To ensure your system is leak-free, wrap your connections with Teflon Plumbers Tape (available in our store). Both Collar Halves
and Converter fittings are marked with a "UP" direction arrow.
Make sure they point to top of LawnBelt. This is a crucial step in the
installation. Do not over tighten Hose Clamps but make sure they are tightened all the way. Use a 5/16" wrench to tighten for best results. Make sure to insert all "U" and End fittings into LawnBelt completely. Push the Belt all the way past the barbs to the end of each fitting. Center Belt ring over the bard for best seal. (about 1/8" away from end of fitting) Insert all Converter Fittings into LawnBelt completely. Push the Belt all the way to end so that Converter flange is flush against Lawn Belt.
