Filling Red and Brown IBC tanks from the East reservoir

• Attach one end of the black hose to the T-connector assembly by the East reservoir, the other end to the IBC feed pipe - red pipe to the left, brown pipe to the right

• Twist the countdown timer in the tractor shed - 15 minutes will fill approximately 1/4 of an IBC

• Pump will switch off and syphon will be interrupted automatically, no need to disconnect the black hose

Green and Blue IBC tanks

• No need to attach the black pipe to the blue pipe by the West reservoir, it stays permanently connected

• Arrange the blue pipe behind the blue IBC to feed either the green or blue IBC, use the short black pipe to make the desired connection

• Remove plastic cover from the countdown timer and twist - 15 minutes will fill approximately 1/4 of an IBC - replace cover

• Pump will switch off and syphon will be interrupted automatically, no need to disconnect the black hose
