NOZZLE REPLACEMENT – 

G80 RISERS

To view and replace the nozzles, it is necessary to compress the riser spring by grabbing the riser 

seal assembly (FIGURE 32), pressing downward and then holding riser firmly to prevent the spring 
from moving upwards.

The G80 riser has three color-coded opposing nozzles. All G80 nozzles are retained in the nozzle 

housing by the shroud (FIGURE 33) that covers the nozzle housing (turret). To remove the shroud, 
use a Phillips head screwdriver and remove the stainless steel screw at the top of the riser by 

turning it counter-clockwise. Prior to removal of the shroud, take note that the large nozzle arrow 
on top of the shroud’s rubberized logo cap is orientated directly over the larger, long-range nozzle 
(FIGURE 34). This will help with the shroud installation process later.

While firmly holding the compressed spring and seal assembly downward, grab and lift the shroud 

off the nozzle housing (FIGURE 35). If preferred, slowly lift and release the compressed spring 
and seal assembly then remove them from the riser assembly. Note the orientation of the seal 
assembly for installation later. Or alternatively, continue to firmly hold the compressed spring and 
seal assembly downward while removing and replacing nozzles.

To remove the G80 long-range primary nozzle, use needle-nose pliers to grab the nozzle’s orifice 

then pull outward (FIGURE 36). Discard the old nozzle as the removal process can damage the 

nozzle and negatively affect its performance. Prior to nozzle replacement, note that there is a 
notch (recessed area) on the nozzle’s outer ring. Insert the replacement nozzle into the nozzle 
housing with this recess positioned at the top. The correct orientation of the recessed area is 
important as it is part of the G80’s nozzle retention system. Press in firmly until the nozzle stops.

The G80’s short-range and mid-range nozzles are performance matched to all G80 long-range 

nozzles. As a result, replacement of these nozzles is normally required only when a nozzle has 
been damaged. If replacement does become necessary, it is important to note that these nozzles 
must be installed with the correct orientation for optimal performance.

Prior to removal of the short-range or mid-
range nozzle, note the differences between the 

nozzle on the left and right. When facing the 
short-range and mid-range nozzles:

 

G80 Full Circle:

  The short-range nozzle is black and on the right side.

 

The mid-range nozzle is blue and on the left side.

To remove the short or mid-range nozzle, grab 

and rotate the nozzle 90 degrees to the outside  
(away from turret) then wiggle and pull it 

upward. To install a short-range or mid-range 
nozzle, position the nozzle so the orifice is  
pointing outward and to the side. Drop the 
nozzle into position by wiggling it downward. 

The final step is to rotate the nozzle 90 degrees 

pointing it in the opposite direction of the 
primary long-range nozzle. This action locks the 
nozzle in the nozzle housing.

Prior to installation of the shroud, replace the 
retraction spring and seal assembly (if removed 

prior). To install the nozzle housing shroud,  
position the shroud over the nozzle housing. 

The single opening for the Primary long-range 

nozzle in the shroud must be positioned directly 
over the nozzle. Press into position and confirm 
all three nozzle openings are lined up with 

the nozzles inside. Install the stainless steel 
screw into the rubberized logo cap by turning 
it clockwise until hand tight. If the nozzle size 
or color has been changed, please note that the 
adjustable stator will likely need to be reset. 
Refer to the Stator Adjustment section in  
this manual for information on how to reset  
the stator.

NOZZLE REPLACEMENT – 

G90 RISERS

To view and replace the nozzles, it is necessary 

to compress the riser spring by grabbing the 

riser seal assembly (FIGURE 37), pressing 
downward and then holding riser firmly to 
prevent the spring from moving upwards.

The G90 riser has three color-coded opposing 

nozzles. All G90 nozzles are retained in the 

nozzle housing (turret) with three setscrews 

(FIGURE 38 & 39). Each setscrew has a 

3

/

32

 inch 

Allen recess at the top. Insert the metal end of 

the Hunter wrench or a 

3

/

32

 inch wrench into 

setscrew that is above the nozzle to be replaced. 
Engage the setscrew and turn counter-
clockwise until the bottom of the setscrew 
clears the top of the nozzle.
