In this video I show you how to turn on a sprinkler valve manually using the solenoid. You will turn the solenoid a quarter to half turn to the counter clockwise direction. This will allow the valve to open up and turn on the sprinkler heads to that zone. Then to turn it off, simply turn the solenoid clockwise until it stops. Don't crank it down too tight, just tight enough to get the valve to shut off. Be careful to not turn it too much when you are trying to turn the valve on, sometimes the solenoid will come out and then you have to shut the water off to get it back in right. ✅ SUBSCRIBE HERE : https://www.youtube.com/c/americanirrigator?sub_confirmation=1 ?

I am going to show you the best way to tape your glue and primer cans together. This tip is really simple and it is a tip irrigators have been doing forever. When you first get a new glue and primer can, quarts or smaller, tape them together wit duct tape. This will make it a lot easier when carrying them around. I have found that going around three times is the best. it holds it together best and last the longest. Something I didn't mention in the video is each time you go around, move down about a half inch. This will widen the taped area out and make it more stable.
