4.2.3 VERTICAL ROTATION TRAVEL STOPS
The range of elevation travel for the Hurricane RC monitor is shown in Fig. 4.2.3A. The elevation range of travel may be reduced by
installing Adjustment Disks as shown in Fig. 4.2.3B. The range of elevation travel for the Hurricane monitor is shown in Fig 4.2.3C.

4.3 NOZZLE INSTALLATION
The Hurricane Fixed Monitor is available with 2.5” male NH
or BSP threads to attach the nozzle. Simply screw the nozzle
onto the monitors exit threads.
The Hurricane RC monitor outlet thread types are as shown
in fi gure 3.3B. Insure that the nozzle’s coupling does not
make contact with the elevation drive housing when the
monitor is in its highest elevation position.
For nozzles with electric pattern control, a waterproof
connector wire is provided at the bottom outlet of the Hurricane
RC’s control station box. This wire attaches directly to TFT’s
electric Masterstream 1250 nozzle. The electric actuator
box of nozzle must be oriented to the top side of nozzle for
the connection wire to extend 90° above horizontal and 45°
below elevation movement. (see fi gure 4.3 and refer to
RC
Monitor Electrical Controls Supplemental Instructions
(LIY-
500) for properly attaching female to male connectors). Any
other nozzle should have the corresponding male electrical
connector installed and long enough wire to extend 90°
above horizontal and 45° below elevation movement of the
nozzle. DO NOT CUT OFF THE FEMALE CONNECTOR
ON THE MONITOR. THIS CONNECTOR IS MOLDED
ONTO THE WIRE AND MUST REMAIN ON TO MAINTAIN
THE WATER TIGHTNESS OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.
TFT’s Master Stream 1250 ER Nozzle
Electric Actuator Box must be on the TOP
Side for its Edge to line up with Monitor
Waterway Top Body, as shown.

Correct ER Nozzle Install Orientation
CAUTION
The nozzle threads must match the threads of the Hurricane monitor in both size and type.
Mismatched or damaged threads may cause the nozzle to leak or uncouple under pressure and
could cause injury.
CAUTION
Do not connect aluminum to brass or brass to aluminum. Dissimilar metals coupled together
can cause galvanic corrosion that will seize the threaded joint or cause complete loss of thread
engagement. If dissimilar metals must be coupled together, the effects of corrosion can be greatly
delayed by various coatings on the metal such as powder paint, hard anodizing, or silicone grease.
