Installation Guide

Hold the brass spigot with the threaded end facing
you. Wrap Teon tape around the long, threaded end
of the brass spigot. Wrap the Teon tape clockwise,
in the same direction as the threads, not against the
threads. The Teon tape should be wrapped around
the threads three times. Too much Teon tape can
make it difcult to thread.
Wrap Teon tape around both ends of the hose
adapter. If linking multiple rain collectors together,
wrap Teon tape around the threaded end of all hose
barbs as well.
Set the hose adaptor aside until Step 3.
Set the hose barbs aside until Step 7.

Lay the rain collector down with the pre-drilled holes towards the sky. Line up the brass spigot and insert the
end with Teon tape into the hole on the middle of the rain collector, turning clockwise. Take care to have the
spigot straight when you insert it. Turn the spigot until you feel resistance or the hexagon end meets the rain
collector. Do not overtighten.
