INSTALLATION
ATTENTION
When installing a Netafim™ impact hammer sprinkler (such as
D-Net™) on a solid set riser pipe of the same thread size, make
sure to allow clearance for the free rotation of the axel bottom
nut.
If sufficient clearance is not allowed and the axel bottom
nut comes in contact with any internal part of the piping, the
sprinkler will not rotate.
Always use a Netafim™ dedicated socket specially designed to
allow the required clearance.
