Materials
- Big Connector

Step 1
In this step you should make a hole in your water pipe for irrigation. The hole should be a few mm smaller than the diameter of the big connector (1). Select a drill (5) and compare its diameter with that of the connector (1).
Make a marking on your drill using tape or band to ensure that the drill won’t go all the way through your water pipe.

Next insert the big connector (1) into the water pipe.
Step 3
After that insert the small connector (2) into the big connector (1). The funnel of the small connector should point at you.
