ADJUSTING THE LEFT (VARIABLE) 
SIDE OF THE ARC

 

INCREASING THE ARC

Insert the (A) end of the Key into the arc set  
adjustment slot (M). While holding the nozzle turret 
(I) at the right start, turn the Key clockwise. Each 
full 360° turn of the Key will increase the arc 90°. 
Adjust to any arc between 40° and 360°. The Key 
will stop turning, or there will be ratcheting noise, 
when the maximum arc of 360° has been reached.

DECREASING THE ARC

Insert the (A) end of the Key into the arc set  
adjustment slot (M). While holding the nozzle turret 
(I) at the right start, turn the Key counter-clockwise. 
Each full 360° turn of the Key will decrease the 
arc 90°. Adjust to any arc between 40° and 360°.  
The Key will stop turning, or there will be a  
ratcheting noise, when the minimum arc of 40°  
has been reached.

INSTALL AND BURY

 
Do not use pipe dope. Thread the sprinkler on the pipe. 
Bury the sprinkler flush on the same watering zone. 

NOTE: 

Gear driven sprinklers and pop-up sprays should 

not be installed on the same watering zone.

INSPECTING THE FILTER

 
Unscrew the top (H) and lift the complete sprinkler 
assembly (J) out of the can (K). The filter is located on 
the bottom of the sprinkler assembly and can be easily 
pulled out, cleaned and re-installed.

WINTERIZATION TIPS

 
When using an air compressor to remove water 
from the system please note the following:
a.  Do not exceed 30 PSI.
b.  Always introduce air into the system gradually 

to avoid air pressure surges. Sudden release of  
compressed air into the sprinkler can cause damage.

c.  Each zone should run no longer than 1 minute on 

air. Sprinklers turn 10 to 12 time faster on air than  
on water. Over spinning rotors on air can cause  
damage to the internal components.
