  • Position the bucket on the lower side of the gutter (see photo 2). You may wish to place it a little higher up, to make it easier for the pump to work. For example, you can raise the bucket with a stool.
  • Place the piece of cling film in one of the bucket's holes (see photo 3).
  • Drill the 140 mm strip on the highest side of the gutter (see photo 4). Here, a 6.5 mm diameter drill bit is used for a 6 mm diameter pipe.
  • Tuck one end of the pipe into the hole and let it protrude about 50 mm (up to the first hole in the waterproof fabric) (see photo 5).
  • Pass the other end of the hose inside the sock, insert it into the 8 mm diameter hole in the bucket and connect it to the water pump (see photo 6). Place the water pump in the bucket
  • Pass the water pump's electrical wire through the bucket's hole, insert it inside the sock and connect it to the programmable plug.
