Install Large-Area Pop-Up
Irrigation:
Incorrect location:
1: No obstacles (e.g. walls, trees, etc.) should be located in the
watering sector. It must be possible to access every contour
point of the areas to be watered in a straight line. With the
maximum range the spray height can reach approx. 5 m.
2: The minimum range is 2.5 m (at 2 bar). With circle water
distribution the large-area pop-up irrigation must therefore be
located 2.5 m from the edge in all directions (A). If this is not
possible the large-area pop-up irrigation should be positioned
at the edge and the watering area will be a circle sector (B).
3: Erratic spray-range changes must be avoided. The smaller
the angle
α, the greater the deviation from the programmed
contour is.
Before installing the large-area pop-up irrigation, you must
set up an above-ground test to check whether the large-
area pop-up irrigation can actually water the required area
at this location.
The large-area pop-up irrigation has a 3/4 female thread and is
connected to the 25 mm Connecting Pipe

1. Install the above-ground test set-up and check whether the
large-area pop-up irrigation can water the required area (see
5. Operation).
2. If the large-area pop-up irrigation has watered the required area
in the test, install a pack of coarse gravel

approx. 20 cm x 20
cm x 20 cm in size underneath the unit.
This ensures proper functioning of the drain valve.
3. Install the upper edge of the large-area pop-up irrigation level
with the turf.
This prevents any damage when mowing the lawn.

5. Operation
A watering sector from 25° to 360° can be selected. To prevent
areas being watered unintentionally (e.g. house), the sector
should first be selected roughly (slightly too small).
Roughly select sector:
1. Close water supply.
2. Turn the nozzle head
