This manual provides instructions for the safe and effective use of your EZ-FLO 1010-HB 1 Gallon Garden Hose Fertilizer Injector, bundled with a Brass Garden Hose Shutoff Valve. This system is designed to simplify the application of liquid and water-soluble fertilizers to lawns, flowers, shrubs, and trees through a standard garden hose or drip system, ensuring consistent and even feeding.
The EZ-FLO system utilizes patented technology to deliver concentrated products without the need for pre-mixing, saving time and effort. The included Brass Garden Hose Shutoff Valve provides convenient water flow control at the point of application.

- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection when handling fertilizers.
- 漏れを防ぐために、すべての接続が確実に固定されていることを確認してください。
- Do not exceed the maximum pressure rating of 80 PSI for the injector.
- The system includes a backflow preventer to protect potable water supplies. Ensure it is properly installed.
- お子様やペットの手の届かない場所に保管してください。
セットアップとインストール
Follow these steps to set up your EZ-FLO fertilizer injector system:
- 水源に接続: Attach the EZ-FLO injector to a standard outdoor faucet (hose bib). Ensure the connection is tight to prevent leaks. The system includes a backflow preventer for water supply protection.
- ガーデンホースを取り付ける: Connect your garden hose to the outlet of the EZ-FLO injector.
- Install Shutoff Valve: If desired, attach the Brass Garden Hose Shutoff Valve to the end of your garden hose, then connect your watering nozzle, spray gun, or sprinkler to the valve. This allows for convenient on/off control at the application point.
Figure 1: Installation diagram for the EZ-FLO injector and shutoff valve. The injector connects to the hose bib, and the garden hose attaches to the injector. The shutoff valve can be added between the hose and the watering tool.

操作手順
Using your EZ-FLO system is straightforward:
- タンクを満タンにする: Unscrew the cap of the EZ-FLO injector. Pour your desired liquid fertilizer or dissolved water-soluble fertilizer directly into the tank. No pre-mixing or dilution is required in a separate container.
- Select Feed Rate: The injector features a feed rate selector.
- 'SLOW' Setting (1000:1 ratio): For constant, low-amount feeding over an extended period. Ideal for regular maintenance.
- 'FAST' Setting (100:1 ratio): For manual, quick feeding in minutes. Suitable for immediate nutrient boosts.
- 水をオンにする: Slowly turn on the water faucet. The EZ-FLO system will begin to inject fertilizer into the water stream.
- Apply Fertilizer: Use your watering nozzle, spray gun, sprinkler, or drip system to apply the fertilized water to your plants. The system ensures consistent and even distribution.
- Monitor Tank Level: Periodically check the tank level. Refill as needed.
- Shutoff Valve Use: Use the Brass Garden Hose Shutoff Valve to temporarily stop water flow without returning to the faucet, conserving water and preventing overspray.
メンテナンス
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your EZ-FLO system:
- クリーニング： After each use, especially when switching fertilizer types, flush the system with clean water. To do this, empty any remaining fertilizer, fill the tank with clean water, and run the system until the tank is empty.
- ストレージ： When not in use for extended periods, drain the tank completely and store the injector in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures.
- 接続を検査する: Regularly check all hose connections and seals for wear or damage. Replace any worn parts to prevent leaks.
- 逆流防止装置: Ensure the backflow preventer is free from debris and functioning correctly.
