ASSEMBLY
Your 7001 controller has a 3/4" inlet and outlet with female pipe thread
and can be installed in line directly to 3/4" PVC male pipe thread fittings
as part of your sprinkler's valve manifold or as a stand-alone unit. (Fig. 1)
OR
The 7001 controller can be attached to a hose or faucet/spigot using the
two adapters that are included with the controller. (Figure 2)
Warning: Wrap all fittings with Teflon tape! Do not use pipe cement
on valve, this will damage the valve and void the warranty!
NOTE: The correct installation of the controller is where the orange handle is away from the faucet
and the controller's digital display reading is facing the faucet.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the flow direction arrow engraved on the side of the controller is
pointed away from the water source.
