PROGRAMS

Lawn Master provides 3 different PROGRAMS to allow custom watering of your landscaping.

All three programs will run, regardless of Program Switch position.

Be careful not to “over program” or accidentally start watering everything at the same time. You may not have enough water pressure to operate more than one zone at a time.

Do a little planning before you start, refer to our sample watering plan below using your own landscape and lay-out your “optimum watering plan” based no your plant’s needs. Your local nursery is an excellent source of information.

When you finish programming, write out your “watering plan” or programs on the back of your instruction envelope located inside your controller door.

Each program turns on each valve in sequence, one after the other, starting at your

programmed start time, on the days you have selected and ends when the last valve with watering duration is finished.
