INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the DIG 12-Outlet Maverick Drip Manifold.
Please take the time to read through the enclosed instructions and follow them step by step.
If you have any questions, please call our customer service line 1-800-322-9146.
1. 12-OUTLET MAVERICK MANIFOLD
DIG 12-Outlet Maverick drip irrigation manifolds are designed to be adapted to any 1⁄2in.
riser, above or below ground. They may be incorporated into a new system, or used to
convert existing sprinkler risers into 12-Outlet drip systems. Available with our extremely
accurate pressure compensating emitters in three flow rates PC1201 – 1 GPH, PC1202 – 2
GPH, PC1204 – 4 GPH per outlet.
12-Outlet Maverick manifolds may be used with either DIG 1⁄8in. or DIG 1⁄4in. micro tubing.
2. HOW TO INSTALL
1. If converting an existing sprinkler system to a Maverick manifold,
first remove the sprinkler. Then turn on the
water to flush the line.
2. After the line has been flushed, thread the
Maverick onto the riser.
3. Excavate a narrow path to a depth of 4 in.
from each individual plant to the Maverick
and lay out micro tubing within the trenches
or leave micro tubing above ground and
cover with mulch.

4. Remove the cover and the Mini-Disk filter. Attach 1⁄8in. micro tubing to
the outlet side (see Figure 4). If using 1⁄4in. micro tubing, first connect a
1⁄4in. converter barb onto the 1⁄4in. micro tubing (see Figure 5) and then
insert the converter barb into the outlet side of the Maverick.
5. Use the rubber caps provided to close all
unused outlets. Do this by removing the cover and
the Mini-Disk filter. Press the rubber caps into the
unused outlets. Re-install the Mini-Disk filter and
cover. Tighten cover by hand.
6. Secure micro tubing near plants. If using more
than one outlet per plant, space each outlet a mini-
mum of 6-8 in. apart. Attach the plastic stake to
end of the micro tubing and add a bug plug at the end of micro tubing. A bug plug prevents
insects from crawling into the tubing, which they sometimes do to lay their eggs. The bug
plug will still allow water to trickle out for the plants.
NOTE: Bug plugs may be used only with 1⁄8in. micro tubing. (see Figure 7)
7. Backfill all trenches.

8. Pressurize the system and verify that the 12-outlet manifold is properly functioning and if
needed, make any necessary corrections.
When designing a system, we recommend that the maximum length of micro tubing from
each outlet should not exceed 8-10 ft.. Longer lengths may certainly be achieved, but please
consider the factor of maintenance and aesthetics.
3. 12-OUTLET ACCESSORIES
The standard micro tubing to be used with the 12-Outlet Maverick is 1⁄8in. with a wall thick-
ness of .118 ID x .187 OD. With the addition of a 1⁄4in. converter barb or elbow, a 1⁄4in.
micro tubing can be used.
Model # B34 1⁄8in. 50 ft. micro tubing
B38 1⁄4in. 50 ft. micro tubing
B38100 1⁄4in. 100 ft. micro tubing
B38500 1⁄4in. 500 ft. micro tubing
BUG CAP
Bug caps should be inserted at the end of each 1⁄8in. micro tubing outlet, if used with any
#57 or #58 stake, permitting free flow of water with minimum restriction from the outlet.
This also secures the system against bugs and dirt from restricting the flow and contaminat-
ing the outlet port.
