Outdoor Timer Installation

Preparing the Timer Cabinet

1. Remove the lower housing cover by pulling

outward on the handle.

2. Remove two phillips screws from the transformer

access cover. Pull the cover outward from the

bottom to remove.

Note: Three lower mounting holes are provided.

The center hole is open and the outer holes

partially-through pilot holes. If the outer holes are

to be used, open the pilot holes using a 3/16

″

(6mm) drill bit.

Three wiring (conduit) access holes are provided in

the cabinet base as follows:

1 – 1/2

″ (13mm) for input power wires.

1 – 3/4

″ (19mm) for sprinkler valve wires.

1 – 1/2

″ (13mm) for Toro RainSensor (optional).

Note: Leave access holes plugged if not used.

Installing the Cabinet

1. For safe, reliable operation, select an installation

site which will provide the following conditions:

• Protection from irrigation spray, exposure to

direct sun during the hottest hours, wind and

snow.

• Access to a grounded power source which

is not controlled by a light switch or utilized

by a high current load appliance, such as a

refrigerator or air conditioner.

• Access to the sprinkler control valve wiring and

optional accessory wiring.

2. Drive a provided stainless steel screw into the

wall at eye level. Leave a 1/4

″ (6.4mm) gap

between the screw head and the wall.

Note: Use appropriate screw anchors if installing

the timer on drywall or masonry.

3. Hang the cabinet on the screw using the keyhole

slot on the back panel. Make sure the cabinet

slides down securely on the screw.

4. Install the lower mounting screw(s) and tighten

securely.

Note: Conduit and adapters are not provided.

Install conduit as required by electrical code.
