Mistking setup - totally lost.

[Randi]

I received my mist king, and the only thing I have accomplished is putting the bulkhead in the reservoir and attaching the hose. It looks like there are supposed to be multiple pieces of hose which is confusing to me... am I supposed to cut the hose somewhere?

I have no clue what to do with the pump. I looked at the directions and I still can't figure out what is supposed to go where.

Any advice?

Does it have the "zip-drip valve"?

 

[Randi]

No, it doesn't, and I think that's where I'm getting confused, because the directions online reference the zip drip valve.

 

[coldbloodedAL]

It is basically the same set-up, Only you by-pass where the zip drip would go.. Instead of running the line from your resevoir into the zipdrip valve, and then the T fitting, You will just plug it into the T that the valve would normally plug into..

Awesome! Thank you! That is helpful. The one thing I'm confused about though is the "Y" piece... what do I do with that?

 

[Olimpia]

The attached picture should help. The pump itself has arrows showing the direction of the flow, so you take a section of tubing from the reservoir to the pump where it says "flow in" and then another section from "flow out" to the first nozzle. And then more sections of tubing from that nozzle to the next one down the line.

 

[Hoj]

the y is used to go out to the next nozzle if you are just using 1 nozzle, you use the L pc
you can see in olyimpias pic

 

[coldbloodedAL]

Actually.. Olimpia is most certainly correct. Negate what I said lol..If you dont have the zipdrip valve there is no need to "loop" the system.
