Information about usage:
The large-area pop-up irrigation should not
be combined with other sprinklers in one
irrigation line.
If there is a change in the range of the large-
area pop-up irrigation, the pressure conditions
will change in the irrigation line, so altering
the range of the other sprinkler.
➔ Only use separate individual water
channels for watering. Do not install
in series with other sprinklers.
The ranges selected may vary with major
fluctuations in pressure in the water pipe.
Pressure Tank Units (with pressure chamber)
to supply water to the sprinkler are not recom-
mended as they cause fluctuations in pressure
with the switch-on/ off pressure.
Sand and other abrasive substances in the
water will result in faster wear and reduced
output.
v With water containing sand a Central Filter
(e.g. GARDENA Central Filter Art. 1510)
should be used.
Do not run over sprinklers installed level with
ground with a lawn rake or aerator.
3. Function
The GARDENA Large-Area Pop-up Irrigation AquaContour
automatic can be used to water individual garden areas. A jet
of water slowly turns in a circle to the end of the programmed
sector, stops, and turns back again, altering the spray range
depending on the ranges programmed. The control panel is
used to programme the irrigation contour points.

4. Initial Operation
Correct location:
A Circle water distribution:
●
With circle water distribution the large-area pop-up irrigation
should be positioned as centrally as possible in the watering
area to ensure that the irrigation width is not greatly affected
by external influences such as wind.
B Sector water distribution:
●
With sector water distribution the large-area pop-up irrigation
should be positioned right at the edge of the watering area
(e.g. at the corner of the house).
●
The large-area pop-up irrigation must be positioned at a point in
the watering sector from which it is possible to water the entire
garden area required. The maximum range is 9 m (with 2 bar
flow pressure at the irrigation unit).
●
The large-area pop-up irrigation must be installed in a position
which is sunny all year round to ensure the solar cell receives
sufficient light.
