I. Introduction: What is a Watering Cycle?
Each watering cycle opens and closes all the valves assigned to a program, in sequence,
starting with the lowest valve number. For example, in the sample watering plan shown,
program A has three start times which initiate three watering cycles. All four valves in the
program water in sequence, three times each day, once at 7:00am, once at 5:00pm, and
once at 11:00pm. This timer can be set to start three watering cycles per program. The three
programs are all completely independent of each other, giving you the freedom to include
any combination of valves in each program
and the ability to select different watering
days and start times for each program.
After programming, write your watering
plan in pencil on the back of the Quick
Reference Card, located on the inside of
the timer door. The REVIEW feature can be
used to review your programmed watering
plan. For the days you have selected in
programs A, B and C, each programmed
start time turns on every selected valve in
sequence, from the lowest valve number to
the highest valve number.

Note: Each program (A, B and C) is simply a set of instructions that direct which valves to
run for how long, on which days and at what time. If you need numerous start times or several
schedules, you will need to use multiple programs. However, in some cases one program will
be sufficient.

(1 votes, average: 4 out of 4) Lawn and Garden readers have rated Toro Model 53603 Sprinkler Irrigation Owners Manual 4.0 out of 4.0 based on 1 product reviews.
The manual was exactly what I needed to reinstall my well-aged lawn sprinkler controller. After much time spent looking for the manual, just as I was about to give up, your site popped up during what turned out to be my final search. Believe me, I will return and I will pass your site on to my friends who might face a similar situation of losing a product manual in the future.
