POULTRY DRINKER BALLAST INLET JOINT SHOOF 219974

Install the ballast inlet joint shoof onto your water supply line, ensuring a secure connection to prevent leaks. Adjust the water pressure to between 20-40 PSI for optimal operation of the automatic drinker mechanism. Mount the drinker at an appropriate height for your livestock type and secure firmly to prevent movement. Fill the system and check all connections before allowing animals access to the drinker. Tips: Regularly inspect the ballast mechanism for debris or mineral buildup that may affect water flow. Position the drinker in a well-drained area away from direct sunlight to reduce algae growth and maintain water quality. Check water pressure weekly, as fluctuations can impact the drinker's performance and animal access.
